Abstract Non-Abelian gauge fields on a four-dimensional hypercubic lattice with small action density [Tr{U( $$\dot p$$ )} for SU(2) gauge fields] are shown to carry an integer topological chargeQ, which is invariant under continuous deformations of the field. A concrete expression forQ is given and it is verified thatQ reduces to the familiar Chern number in the classical continuum limit.
