چکیده
In this letter, we study the instanton moduli space of eight-dimensional solutions self-duality equation $F\wedge F= \ast F\wedge F$. Using known ADHM-construction such instantons, compute dimension to construction. We find a general $N$-instanton solution 't Hooft type which depends on $8N+1$ free parameters and investigate cases $N=2$ $N=3$ in detail.

Octonionic Gravitational Instantons
We construct eight-dimensional gravitational instantons by solving appropriate selfduality equations for the spin-connection. The particular gravitational instanton we present has Spin(7) holonomy and, in a sense, it is the eight-dimensional analog of the Eguchi-Hanson 4D space. It has a removable bolt singularity which is topologically S4 and its boundary at infinity is the squashed S7. We als...
متن کاملInstantons and the monopole-like equations in eight dimensions
We search for an abelian description of the Yang-Mills instantons on certain eight dimensioanl manifolds with the special holonomies Spin(7) and SU(4). By mimicing the Seiberg-Witten theory in four dimensions, we propose a set of monopole-like equations governing the 8-dimensional U(1) connections and spinors, which are supposed to be the dual theory of the nonabelian instantons. We also give a...
متن کاملMulti-instantons in seven dimensions
We consider the self-dual Yang-Mills equations in seven dimensions. Modifying the t’Hooft construction of instantons in d = 4, we find N -instanton 7d solutions which depend on 8N effective parameters and are E6-invariant.
متن کاملFreckled Instantons in Two and Four Dimensions
Field theory with instantons can be partially regularized by adding degrees of freedom at some scale. These extra degrees of freedom lead to the appearence of the new topological defects. These defects which we call freckles have some characteristic size depending on the scale at which the extra degrees of freedom revive. The examples of two dimensional sigma model, four dimensional gauge theor...
متن کاملNoncommutative U(1) Instantons in Eight Dimensional Yang-Mills Theory
We study the noncommutative version of the extended ADHM construction in the eight dimensional U(1) Yang-Mills theory. This construction gives rise to the solutions of the BPS equations in the Yang-Mills theory, and these solutions preserve at least 3/16 of supersymmetries. In a wide subspace of the extended ADHM data, we show that the integer k which appears in the extended ADHM construction s...
