Abstract:
We study a functional that derives from the classical Yang–Mills functional and Born–Infeld theory. We establish its first variation formula and prove the existence of critical points. We also obtain the second variation formula.
Keywords:
curvature; vector bundle; Yang–Mills connections; variations.
