Abstract
We study orientability issues of moduli spaces from gauge theories on Calabi–Yau manifolds. Our results generalize and strengthen those for Donaldson–Thomas theory on Calabi–Yau manifolds of dimensions 3 and 4. We also prove a corresponding result in the relative situation which is relevant to the gluing formula in DT theory.
