Recent progress to construct Dirac operators and spinors on compact quantum groups is discussed. The case $SU_q(2)$ is studied carefully and the relationship between known approaches is explained. New examples are given.
For high power $k$, the $L^2$-estimates for the Dirac-Dolbeault operator with coefficient $L^k\otimes E$ can be obtained from the Bochner-Kodaira-Nakano identity if $L$ has positive curvature. In this article, we generalize the classical…
A Dirac operator on a complete manifold is Fredholm if it is invertible outside a compact set. Assuming a compact group to act on all relevant structure, and the manifold to have a warped product structure outside such a compact set, we…
We derive upper eigenvalue bounds for the Dirac operator of a closed hypersurface in a manifold with Killing spinors such as Euclidean space, spheres or hyperbolic space. The bounds involve the Willmore functional. Relations with the…
We show that the residue density of the logarithm of a generalised Laplacian on a closed manifold defines an invariant polynomial valued differential form. We express it in terms of a finite sum of residues of classical pseudodifferential…
For $0<r<1$, let us consider the following annulus: \[ \mathbb A_r= \{ z\in \mathbb C\, : \, r<|z|<1 \}. \] A Hilbert space operator $T$ for which $\overline{\mathbb A}_r$ is a spectral set is called an $\mathbb A_r$-\textit{contraction}.…
We prove an index formula for the Dirac operator acting on two-valued spinors on a $3$-manifold $M$ which branch along a smoothly embedded graph $\Sigma \subset M$, and with respect to a boundary condition along $\Sigma$ inspired by an…
We provide a comprehensive lattice formulation of various types of the Dirac operator indices, employing $K$-theory to classify the Wilson Dirac operator via its spectral flow. In contrast to the index of the overlap Dirac operator defined…
We consider the index problem for a wide class of nonlocal elliptic operators on a smooth closed manifold, namely differential operators with shifts induced by the action of an isometric diffeomorphism. The key to the solution is the method…
We express the Connes-Chern character of the Dirac operator associated to a b-metric on a manifold with boundary in terms of a retracted cocycle in relative cyclic cohomology, whose expression depends on a scaling/cut-off pa- rameter.…
In our previous publications we introduced differential calculus on the enveloping algebras U(gl(m)) similar to the usual calculus on the commutative algebra Sym(gl(m)). The main ingredient of our calculus are quantum partial derivatives…
A matricial Darboux operator intertwining two one-dimensional stationary Dirac Hamiltonians is constructed. This operator is such that the potential of the second Dirac Hamiltonian as well as the corresponding eigenfunctions are determined…
We considered an extension of the standard functional for the Einstein-Dirac equation where the Dirac operator is replaced by the square of the Dirac operator and a real parameter controlling the length of spinors is introduced. For one…
We study perturbations of relative cubic Dirac operators for basic classical Lie superalgebras within the uniform formalism of the colour quantum Weil algebra. This perspective leads to three complementary classes of perturbations and…
This is the second part in a series of two papers. The $k$-Dirac complex is a complex of differential operators which are natural to a particular $|2|$-graded parabolic geometry. In this paper we will consider the $k$-Dirac complex over a…
Let M be a closed spin manifold of dimension at least three with a fixed topological spin structure. For any Riemannian metric, we can construct the associated Dirac operator. The spectrum of this Dirac operator depends on the metric of…
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…
A new supersymmetric proof of the Atiyah-Singer index theorem is presented. The Peierls bracket quantization scheme is used to quantize the supersymmetric classical system corresponding to the index problem for the twisted Dirac operator.…
Normality of the Dirac operator is shown to be necessary for chiral properties. From the global chiral Ward identity, which in the continuum limit gives the index theorem, a sum rule results which constrains the spectrum. The…
We analyse the `quantization commutes with reduction' problem (first studied in physics by Dirac, and known in the mathematical literature also as the Guillemin-Sternberg Conjecture) for the conjugate action of a compact connected Lie group…
