We prove a conformally invariant estimate for the index of Schrodinger operators acting on vector bundles over four-manifolds, related to the classical Cwikel-Lieb-Rozenblum estimate. Applied to Yang-Mills connections we obtain a bound for the index in terms of its energy which is conformally invariant, and captures the sharp growth rate. Furthermore we derive an index estimate for Einstein metrics in terms of the topology and the Einstein-Hilbert energy. Lastly we derive conformally invariant estimates for the Betti numbers of an oriented four-manifold with positive scalar curvature.

On a Riemannian manifold of dimension $n$ we extend the known analytic results on Yang-Mills connections to the class of connections called $Omega$-Yang-Mills connections, where $Omega$ is a smooth, not necessarily closed, $(n-4)$-form. Special cases include $Omega$-anti-self-dual connections and Hermitian-Yang-Mills connections over general complex manifolds. By a key observation, a weak compactness result is obtained for moduli space of smooth $Omega$-Yang-Mills connections with uniformly $L^2$ bounded curvature, and it can be improved in the case of Hermitian-Yang-Mills connections over general complex manifolds. A removable singularity theorem for singular $Omega$-Yang-Mills connections on a trivial bundle with small energy concentration is also proven. As an application, it is shown how to compactify the moduli space of smooth Hermitian-Yang-Mills connections on unitary bundles over a class of balanced manifolds of Hodge-Riemann type. This class includes the metrics coming from multipolarizations, and in particular, the Kaehler metrics. In the case of multipolarizations on a projective algebraic manifold, the compactification of smooth irreducible Hermitian-Yang-Mills connections with fixed determinant modulo gauge transformations inherits a complex structure from algebro-geometric considerations.
In the spirit of recent work of Lamm, Malchiodi and Micallef in the setting of harmonic maps, we identify Yang-Mills connections obtained by approximations with respect to the Yang-Mills {alpha}-energy. More specifically, we show that for the SU(2) Hopf fibration over the four sphere, for sufficiently small {alpha} values the SO(4) invariant ADHM instanton is the unique {alpha}-critical point which has Yang-Mills {alpha}-energy lower than a specific threshold.
We investigate stability of pullback bundles with respect to adiabatic classes on the total space of holomorphic submersions. We show that the pullback of a stable (resp. unstable) bundle remains stable (resp. unstable) for these classes. Assuming the graded object of a Jordan-Holder filtration to be locally free, we obtain a necessary and sufficient criterion for when the pullback of a strictly semistable vector bundle will be stable, in terms of intersection numbers on the base of the fibration. The arguments rely on adiabatic constructions of hermitian Yang-Mills connections together with the classical Donaldson-Uhlenbeck-Yau correspondence.
This paper begins to study the limiting behavior of a family of Hermitian Yang-Mills (HYM for brevity) metrics on a class of rank two slope stable vector bundles over a product of two elliptic curves with Kahler metrics $omega_epsilon$ when $epsilonto 0$. Here $omega_epsilon$ are flat and have areas $epsilon$ and $epsilon^{-1}$ on the two elliptic curves respectively. A family of Hermitian metrics on the vector bundle are explicitly constructed and with respect to them, the HYM metrics are normalized. We then compare the family of normalized HYM metrics with the family of constructed Hermitian metrics by doing estimates. We get the higher order estimates as long as the $C^0$-estimate is provided. We also get the estimate of the lower bound of the $C^0$-norm. If the desired estimate of the upper bound of the $C^0$-norm can be obtained, then it would be shown that these two families of metrics are close to arbitrary order in $epsilon$ in any $C^k$ norms.
Inspired in the Standard Model of Elementary Particles, the Einstein Yang-Mills Higgs action with the Higgs field in the SU(2) representation was proposed in Class. Quantum Grav. 32 (2015) 045002 as the element responsible for the dark energy phenomenon. We revisit this action emphasizing in a very important aspect not sufficiently explored in the original work and that substantially changes its conclusions. This aspect is the role that the Yang-Mills Higgs interaction plays at fixing the gauge for the Higgs field, in order to sustain a homogeneous and isotropic background, and at driving the late accelerated expansion of the Universe by moving the Higgs field away of the minimum of its potential and holding it towards an asymptotic finite value. We analyse the dynamical behaviour of this system and supplement this analysis with a numerical solution whose initial conditions are in agreement with the current observed values for the density parameters. This scenario represents a step towards a successful merging of cosmology and well-tested particle physics phenomenology.
