Global well-posedness for the Yang-Mills equation in 4+1 dimensions: Small energy

Joachim Krieger, Daniel Tataru

We consider the hyperbolic Yang-Mills equation on the Minkowski space

\reels^{4+1}

. Our main result asserts that this problem is globally well-posed for all initial data whose energy is sufficiently small. This solves a longstanding open problem. ...
