Abstract: In this note we introduce a Yang-Mills bar equation on complex vector bundles $E$ provided with a Hermitian metric over compact Hermitian manifolds. According to the Koszul-Malgrange criterion any holomorphic structure on $E$ can be seen as a solution to this equation. We show the existence of a non-trivial solution to this equation over compact Kähler manifolds as well as a short time existence of a related negative Yang-Mills bar gradient flow. We also show a rigidity of holomorphic connections among a class of Yang-Mills bar connections over compact Käahler manifolds of positive Ricci curvature.
