We show how the Killing Spinor Identities (KSI) can be used to reduce the number of independent equations of motion that need to be checked explicitly to make sure that a supersymmetric configuration is a classical supergravity solution. We…

We devise an algorithm which allows one to count the number of Killing vectors for a Lorentzian manifold of dimension 3. Our algorithm relies on the principal traces of powers of the Ricci tensor and branches intricately according to the…

Riemannian manifolds with non-zero Killing spinors are Einstein manifolds. Klaus Kr\"{o}ncke proved that all complete Riemannian manifolds with imaginary Killing spinors are (linearly) strictly stable in \cite{Kro15}. In this paper, we…

A pseudo-Riemannian Einstein manifold with a Killing spinor and Killing constant $\lambda$ induces on its nondegenerate hypersurfaces a pair of spinors $\phi,\psi$ and a symmetric tensor $A$, corresponding to the second fundamental form.…

We consider geometric and supergravity Killing spinors and the spinor bilinears constructed out of them. The spinor bilinears of geometric Killing spinors correspond to the antisymmetric generalizations of Killing vector fields which are…

We extend the refined G-structure classification of supersymmetric solutions of eleven dimensional supergravity. We derive necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of an arbitrary number of Killing spinors whose common isotropy…

To understand the coupling behavior of the spinor with spacetime, the explicit form of the energy-momentum tensor of the spinor in curved spacetime is important. This problem seems to be overlooked for a long time. In this paper we derive…

We study the twistor equation on pseudo-Riemannian $Spin^c-$manifolds whose solutions we call charged conformal Killing spinors (CCKS). We derive several integrability conditions for the existence of CCKS and study their relations to spinor…

This is a short pedagogical introduction to the subject of Killing-Stackel and Killing-Yano tensors and their role in the integrability of various types of equations that are of physical interest in curved spacetime, the main application…

We generalize the result of [Matveev-Topalov 2001] to all signatures: we show that in all signatures the Killing tensors constructed by projectively equivalent metrics correspond to commuting differential operators

In this paper, we continue the study of the Killing symmetries of a N-dimensional generalized Minkowski space, i.e. a space endowed with a (in general non-diagonal) metric tensor, whose coefficients do depend on a set of non-metrical…

The Killing tensor equation is a first order differential equation on symmetric covariant tensors that generalises to higher rank the usual Killing vector equation on Riemannian manifolds. We view this more generally as an equation on any…

Ricci-flat spacetimes of signature (2,q) with q=2,3,4 are constructed which admit irreducible Killing tensors of rank-3 or rank-4. The construction relies upon the Eisenhart lift applied to Drach's two-dimensional integrable systems which…

In this paper we give a spinorial representation of submanifolds of any dimension and codimension into Riemannian space forms in terms of the existence of so called generalized Killing spinors. We then discuss several applications, among…

We study the effect of S-duality and target-space duality tranformations of $N=4,d=4$ and $N=1,d=10$ supersymmetric configurations on their Killing spinors. We find that, under reasonable assumptions, the dual configurations are also…

Using the result of Petersen & Wink '21, we find obstructions to the curvature and topology of compact Lorentzian manifolds admitting a unit-length timelike Killing vector field.

We study the space-times admitting a null conformal Killing-Yano tensor whose divergence defines a Killing vector. We analyze the similitudes and differences with the recently studied non null case (Gen. Relativ. Grav. (2015) {\bf 47}…

Assuming the existence of a single rank-2 closed conformal Killing-Yano tensor with a certain symmetry we show that there exist mutually commuting rank-2 Killing tensors and Killing vectors. We also discuss the condition of separation of…

We study the integrability conditions of the conformal Killing equations for the Eisenhart lift of a scalar field in a flat Friedmann-Lema\^\i tre-Robertson-Walker universe. We show that the potential found in our earlier work is already…
