SUMMARY:A Non-Abelian Self-Dual Gauge Theory in 5+1 Dimensions - Matsuo  \

DESCRIPTION:We construct a non-Abelian gauge theory of chiral 2-forms (sel
 f-dual gauge fields) in 6 dimensions with a spatial direction compactified
  on a circle of radius R. It has the following two properties. (1) It redu
 ces to the Yang-Mills theory in 5 dimensions for small R. (2) It is equiva
 lent to the Lorentz-invariant theory of Abelian chiral 2-forms when the ga
 uge group is Abelian. Previous no-go theorems prohibiting non-Abelian defo
 rmations of the chiral 2-form gauge theory are circumvented by introducing
  nonlocality along the compactified dimension.\n
