We generalize the symmetry superalgebras of isometries and geometric Killing spinors on a manifold to include all the hidden symmetries of the manifold generated by Killing spinors in all dimensions. We show that bilinears of geometric…

We describe and to some extent characterize a new family of K\"ahler spin manifolds admitting non-trivial imaginary K\"ahlerian Killing spinors.

Killing forms on Riemannian manifolds are differential forms whose covariant derivative is totally skew-symmetric. We show that on a compact manifold with holonomy G2 or Spin7 any Killing form has to be parallel. The main tool is a…

We show that $3$-$(\alpha,\delta)$-Sasaki manifolds admit solutions of a certain new spinorial field equation (the $\mathcal{H}$-Killing equation) generalizing the well-known Killing spinors on $3$-Sasakian manifolds. These…

The complex projective space $\mathbb C P^2$ of complex dimension $2$ has a Spin$^c$ structure carrying K\"ahlerian Killing spinors. The restriction of one of these K\"ahlerian Killing spinors to a surface $M^2$ characterizes the isometric…

We extend to the eigenvalues of the hypersurface Spin$^c$ Dirac operator well known lower and upper bounds. Examples of limiting cases are then given. Futhermore, we prove a correspondence between the existence of a Spin$^c$ Killing spinor…

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…

We use a construction which we call generalized cylinders to give a new proof of the fundamental theorem of hypersurface theory. It has the advantage of being very simple and the result directly extends to semi-Riemannian manifolds and to…

Simply connected 3-dimensional homogeneous manifolds $E(\kappa, \tau)$, with 4-dimensional isometry group, have a canonical Spin$^c$ structure carrying parallel or Killing spinors. The restriction to any hypersurface of these parallel or…

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…

On a Lorentzian manifold the existence of a parallel null vector field implies certain constraint conditions on the induced Riemannian geometry of a space-like hypersurface. We will derive these constraint conditions and, conversely, show…
