چکیده

We investigate Lie symmetries of general Yang-Mills equations. For this purpose, we first write down the second prolongation of the symmetry generating vector fields, and compute its action on the Yang-Mills equations. Determining equations are then obtained, and solved completely. Provided that Yang-Mills equations are locally solvable, this allows for a complete classification of their Lie symmetries. Symmetries of Yang-Mills equations in the Lorentz gauge are also investigated. PACS: 02.20.+b

Reducible Connections and Non-local Symmetries of the Self-dual Yang–mills Equations

We construct the most general reducible connection that satisfies the self-dual Yang–Mills equations on a simply-connected, open subset of flat R. We show how all such connections lie in the orbit of the flat connection on R under the action of non-local symmetries of the self-dual Yang–Mills equations. Such connections fit naturally inside a larger class of solutions to the self-dual Yang–Mill...

Classification of Generalized Symmetries of the Yang-mills Fields with a Semi-simple Structure Group

A complete classification of generalized symmetries of the Yang-Mills equations on Minkowski space with a semi-simple structure group is carried out. It is shown that any generalized symmetry, up to a generalized gauge symmetry, agrees with a first order symmetry on solutions of the Yang-Mills equations. Let g = g1+ · · ·+gn be the decomposition of the Lie algebra g of the structure group into ...

Natural Symmetries of the Yang-mills Equations

We define a natural generalized symmetry of the Yang-Mills equations as an infinitesimal transformation of the Yang-Mills field, built in a local, gauge invariant, and Poincaré invariant fashion from the Yang-Mills field strength and its derivatives to any order, which maps solutions of the field equations to other solutions. On the jet bundle of Yang-Mills connections we introduce a spinorial ...
