A bundle trivial on a twistor line has a global holomorphic bundle frame there. Comparing it with the given two patch bundle frames produces invertible matrices , holomorphic on their respective affine patches, with . The obstruction to varying such a bundle frame locally with space-time is , so the splitting factors can be chosen holomorphically in a neighbourhood. If two splittings differ by and , then is holomorphic on the compact complex projective line and hence independent of its projective coordinate. It is the space-time gauge freedom.
