Abstract

We consider the $L^2$ -gradient flow associated with the Yang-Mills functional, the so-called Yang-Mills heat flow. In the setting of a trivial principal SO(n)-bundle over ${\mathbb R}^n$ in dimension n greater than 4, we show blow-up in finite time for a class of SO(n)-equivariant initial connections.
