Abstract: We examine the relation between the gauge groups of $mathrmSU(n)$- and $mathrmPU(n)$-bundles over $S^{2i}$, with $2leqileqn$, particularly when $n$ is a prime. As special cases, for $mathrmPU(5)$-bundles over $S^4$, we show that there is a rational or $p$-local equivalence $mathcal{G}_{2,k}sime{q}_{(p)}mathcal{G}_{2,l}$ for any prime $p$ if, and only if, $(120,k)=(120,l)$, while for $mathrmPU(3)$-bundles over $S^6$ there is an integral equivalence $mathcal{G}_{3,k}simeqmathcal{G}_{3,l}$ if, and only if, $(120,k)=(120,l)$.
