Abstract
The conformal transformation properties of the recently discovered pseudoparticle solution to a pure Yang-Mills theory are studied. It is shown that the solution is invariant under an O(5) subgroup of conformal transformations. A formalism is developed which renders this invariance explicit and which allows a very compact group-theoretical analysis of the propagation of fermions in the field of the pseudoparticle.Keywords
