ADHM construction of (anti-)self-dual instantons in eight dimensions

We study the ADHM construction of (anti-)self-dual instantons in eight dimensions. We propose a general scheme to construct the (anti-)self-dual gauge field configurations F∧F=±⁎8F∧F whose finite topological charges are given by the fourth Chern number. We show that our construction reproduces the k...
