Abstract.

We show that the non-commutative Yang–Mills field forms an irreducible representation of the (undeformed) Lie algebra of rigid translations, rotations and dilatations. The non-commutative Yang–Mills action is invariant under combined conformal transformations of the Yang–Mills field and of the non-commutativity parameter \(\theta\). The Seiberg–Witten differential equation results from a covariant splitting of the combined conformal transformations and can be computed as the missing piece to complete a covariant conformal transformation to an invariance of the action.
