B\"acklund transformations for transparent connections
Abstract
Let M be a closed orientable surface of negative curvature. A connection is said to be transparent if its parallel transport along closed geodesics is the identity. We describe all transparent SU(2)-connections and we show that they can be built up from suitable B\"acklund transformations.
