Degenerate Spin Structures and the Levy-Leblond Equation

Mathematical Physics 2007-05-23 v1 math.MP

Abstract

Newton-Cartan manifolds and the Galilei group are defined by the use of co-rank one degenerate metric tensor. Newton-Cartan connection is lifted to the degenerate spinor bundle over a Newton-Cartan 4-manifold by the aid of degenerate spin group. Levy-Leblond equation is constructed with the lifted connection.
