First examples of solutions We fix a compact complex manifold ( X , J ) and a G -bundle over X . Consider the equations for ( ω, A ), with ω ∈ [ ω ] and A ∈ A 1 , 1 . Trivial examples: The system of equations (1) decouples when dim C X = 1 since ( F A ∧ F A ) = 0. Solutions = stable holomorphic bundles over ( X , J ). If E = L , or if E es projectively flat, with c 1 ( E ) = λ [ ω ] then the coupled equations admit decoupled solutions: cscK + HYM. Remark: In both cases ∃ a solution to F A = λω , which implies Lie � G = Lie G ⋉ Lie H .
