Extensibility conjecture for doubly-periodic anti-self-dual instantons

From papers

Let AA be an anti-self-dual connection on a bundle ET×CE\rightarrow T\times\mathbb{C}, with curvature satisfying FAO(w2)|F_A|\sim O(|w|^{-2}). A holomorphic structure (E,A)(E,\overline{\partial}_A) is induced by AA. Extensibility conjecture. If

FAO(w2),|F_A|\sim O(|w|^{-2}),

then there is a holomorphic vector bundle ET×P1{\cal E}\rightarrow T\times\mathbb{P}^1 such that

ET×(P1{})(E,A).{\cal E}|_{T\times(\mathbb{P}^1\setminus\{\infty\})}\simeq(E,\overline{\partial}_A).

In other words, AA is extensible. The paper presents this as an expected analytical result: it would show that the stated curvature decay is sufficient for extensibility. Whether this implication holds is left open.
