Conformal properties of pseudoparticle configurations

The known Euclidean Yang-Mills pseudoparticle solutions with Pontryagin index n are parametrized by 5n constants describing the size and location of each pseudoparticle. By insisting on conformal covariance of the solutions, we show that more general solutions exist: they are parametrized by 5n + 4 constants. We further demonstrate that the additional degrees of freedom are not gauge artifacts and correspond to a new degeneracy of pseudoparticle configurations.
