Index theorem for Z/2-harmonic spinors

Abstract

In my previous paper, I prove the existence of the Kuranishi structure for the moduli space M\mathfrak{M} of zero loci of Z/2\mathbb{Z}/2-harmonic spinors on a 3-manifold. So a nature question we can ask is to compute the virtual dimension for this moduli space Mg0:=M{g=g0}\mathfrak{M}_{g_0}:=\mathfrak{M}\cap\{g=g_0\}. In this paper, I will first prove that vdim(Mg0)=0v-dim(\mathfrak{M}_{g_0})=0. Secondly, I will generalize this formula on 4-manifolds by using a special type of index developed by Jochen Bruning, Robert Seeley, and Fangyun Yang.
