On a twistor line use and . For a degree-zero holomorphic patching logarithm, its Laurent series splits as , . The twistor incidence relation implies . Hence on both patches. The gauge potential is , . Exponentiating the two additive factors produces the linewise holomorphic splitting of .
The Abelian Ward splitting by Laurent series gives this gauge potential through the Cauchy integral formula, with evaluated on the twistor line. The integrand has total projective degree zero. Holding the contour fixed locally and differentiating gives , using . Its unprimed two-component spinor is symmetric, so the primed gauge curvature vanishes and the field obeys the anti-self-dual Maxwell equations. These signs use , and raising by left multiplication; other consistent raising conventions can reverse both displayed overall signs.
