Abstract
A model of spherically symmetric SU(2) gauge theory is considered. The self-duality equations are written and it is shown that they are compatible with the Einstein-Yang-Mills equations. It is proven that the SU(2) gauge model is self-dual on a Schwarzschild space-time but not on a Reissner-Nordström one.
