The method allows one to prove the existence of new examples of size 10x10 and 14x14 via instanton bundles of charge 2 and 4 respectively, and provides an explanation for what used to be the only known example (Westwick 1996). We also give an algorithm to construct explicitly a matrix of size 14 of this type.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2013-10-15T10:33:36.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14J60", "15A30", "14F05" ], "keywords": [ "instanton bundles", "linear spaces", "constant rank", "skew-symmetric matrices", "constant co-rank" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "Elsevier", "journal": "Adv.
