Let M be a homology sphere. Suppose P=M*SU(2) is the trivial SU(2) principal bundle. Let R be all reducible connections on P. Here A in R is reducible if the gauge transformation group acting on A has nontrivial stable subgroup. I want to see that the only flat connection in R is the Product connection. Thanks.
