Abstract

Abstract In this paper, we study the analytic properties of solutions to the Vafa–Witten equation over a compact Kähler manifold. Simple obstructions to the existence of nontrivial solutions are identified. The gauge theoretical compactness for the C ∗ \mathbb{C}^{*} invariant locus of the moduli space is shown to behave similarly to the Hermitian Yang–Mills connections. More generally, this holds for solutions with uniformly bounded spectral covers such as nilpotent solutions. When spectral covers are unbounded, we manage to take limits of the renormalized Higgs fields which are intrinsically characterized by the convergence of the associated spectral covers. This gives a simpler proof for Taubes’ results on rank two solutions over Kähler surfaces together with a new complex geometric interpretation. The moduli space of SU ⁢ ( 2 ) \mathsf{SU}(2) monopoles and some related examples are also discussed in the final section.
