Non-abelian monopoles on four-manifolds Original Research Article

We present a non-abelian generalization of Seiberg-Witten monopole equations and we analyze the associated moduli problem, which can be regarded as a generalization of Donaldson theory. The moduli space of solutions for SU(2) monopoles on Kähler manifolds is discussed. We also construct, using the Mathai-Quillen formalism, the topological quantum field theory corresponding to the new moduli problem. This theory involves the coupling of topological Yang-Mills theory to topological matter in four dimensions.
