Along the lines of the classic Hodge-De Rham theory a general decomposition theorem for sections of a Dirac bundle over a compact Riemannian manifold is proved by extending concepts as exterior derivative and coderivative as well as as…
The purpose of this note is to construct a sequence of spin hyperbolic surfaces $\Sigma_n$ with genus going to infinity and with a uniform spectral gap for the Dirac operator. Our construction is completely explicit. In particular, the…
The Dolbeault complex of a quantized compact Hermitian symmetric space is expressed in terms of the Koszul complex of a braided symmetric algebra of Berenstein and Zwicknagl. This defines a spectral triple quantizing the Dolbeault-Dirac…
New extrinsic lower bounds are given for the classical Dirac operator on the boundary of a compact domain of a spin manifold. The main tool is to solve some boundary problems for the Dirac operator of the domain under boundary conditions of…
It is well-known that spin structures and Dirac operators play a crucial role in the study of positive scalar curvature metrics (psc-metrics) on compact manifolds. Here we consider a class of non-spin manifolds with "almost spin" structure,…
We consider supersymmetric quantum mechanical systems in arbitrary dimensions on curved spaces with nontrivial gauge fields. The square of the Dirac operator serves as Hamiltonian. We derive a relation between the number of supercharges…

In this paper we introduce the Dirac and spin-Dirac operators associated to a connection on Riemann-Cartan space(time) and standard Dirac and spin-Dirac operators associated with a Levi-Civita connection on a Riemannian (Lorentzian)…
This paper studies Dirac operators on end-periodic spin manifolds of dimension at least 4. We provide a sufficient condition for such an operator to be Fredholm for a generic end-periodic metric; this condition is shown to be necessary in…
We present explicit formulas for the spectra of higher spin operators on the subbundle of the bundle of spinor-valued trace free symmetric tensors that are annihilated by the Clifford multiplication over the standard sphere in odd…
By requiring unambiguous symmetric quantization leading to the Dirac equation in a curved space, we obtain a special representation of the spin connections in terms of the Dirac gamma matrices and their space-time derivatives. We also…

We construct an explicit example of dimensional reduction of the free massless Dirac operator with an internal SU(3) symmetry, defined on a twelve-dimensional manifold that is the total space of a principal SU(3)-bundle over a…
Using representation theory, we compute the spectrum of the Dirac operator on the universal covering group of $SL_2(\mathbb R)$, exhibiting it as the generator of $KK^1(\mathbb C, \mathfrak A)$, where $\mathfrak A$ is the reduced…
We review some of the geometry of the quantum projective plane with emphasis on the construction of a differential calculus and of the Dirac operator (of a spin^c-structure). We also report on anti-self-dual connections on line bundles, the…
A supersymmetric theory in two-dimensions has enough data to define a noncommutative space thus making it possible to use all the tools of noncommutative geometry. In particular, we apply this to the N=1 supersymmetric non-linear sigma…
