The coadjoint orbits of compact Lie groups carry many K\"ahler structures, which include a Riemannian metric and a complex structure. We provide a fairly explicit formula for the Levi-Civita connection of the Riemannian metric, and we use…
We use the $\zeta$-function regularization and an integral representation of the complex power of a pseudo differential operator, to give an unambiguous definition of the determinant of the Dirac operator. We bring this definition to a…
By examining the analyticity of a sequence of topologically-proper lattice Dirac operators, we show that they tend to a nonlocal Dirac operator. This implies that a nonlocal lattice Dirac operator can have exact zero modes satisfying the…
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)…
On manifolds with non-trivial Killing tensors admitting a square root of the Killing-Yano type one can construct non-standard Dirac operators which differ from, but commute with, the standard Dirac operator. We relate the index problem for…
Let G be a compact connected semisimple Lie group and let H\subset G be a closed connected subgroup such that rank(G)=rank(H) and G/H is a symmetric space. Given an irreducible representation of H, we define a Dirac operator D and determine…
We introduce the notions of Chern-Dirac bundles and Chern-Dirac operators on Hermitian manifolds. They are analogues of classical Dirac bundles and Dirac operators, with Levi-Civita connection replaced by Chern connection. We then show that…
We establish the basics of the analysis of operators on coverings of manifolds with cylindrical ends with a group of deck transformations $\Gamma$. We prove the $\Gamma$-analogue of the Atiyah-Patodi-Singer formula for Dirac operators on…
On complete non-compact manifolds with bounded sectional curvature, we consider a class of self-adjoint Dirac-type operators called Dirac-Schr\"odinger operators. Assuming two Dirac-Schr\"odinger operators coincide at infinity, by previous…
We construct in projective differential geometry of the real dimension $2$ higher symmetry algebra of the symplectic Dirac operator ${D}\kern-0.5em\raise0.22ex\hbox{/}_s$ acting on symplectic spinors. The higher symmetry differential…
It is shown that the N=4 superalgebra of the Dirac theory in Taub-NUT space has different unitary representations related among themselves through unitary U(2) transformations. In particular the SU(2) transformations are generated by the…
We consider the Dirac operator on asymptotically static Lorentzian manifolds with an odd-dimensional compact Cauchy surface. We prove that if Atiyah-Patodi-Singer boundary conditions are imposed at infinite times then the Dirac operator is…
We study the interplay between basic Dirac operator and transverse Killing and twistor spinors. In order to obtain results for general Riemannian foliations with bundle-like metric we consider transverse Killing spinors that appear as…
We introduce the concept of chiral geometric operators and use Gilkey's invariance theory to prove the local index theorem for these operators. In other words, we demonstrate that the supertrace of the heat kernel of a given geometric…
We consider Dirac-like operators with piecewise constant mass terms on spin manifolds, and we study the behaviour of their spectra when the mass parameters become large. In several asymptotic regimes, effective operators appear: the…
We define an equivariant index of Spin$^c$-Dirac operators on possibly noncompact manifolds, acted on by compact, connected Lie groups. The main result in this paper is that the index decomposes into irreducible representations according to…
We show, under an orientation hypothesis, that a log symplectic manifold with simple normal crossing singularities has a stable almost complex structure, and hence is Spin$_c$. In the compact Hamiltonian case we prove that the index of the…
We consider a semi-classical Dirac operator in arbitrary spatial dimensions with a smooth potential whose partial derivatives of any order are bounded by suitable constants. We prove that the distribution kernel of the inverse operator…
The so-called Dirac oscillator was proposed as a modification of the free Dirac equation which reproduces many of the properties of the simple harmonic oscillator but accompanied by a strong spin-orbit coupling term. It has yet to be…
The Dirac equation with mass and axial chemical potential is solved analytically obtaining the mode spinors and corresponding projection operators giving the spectral representations of the principal conserved operators. In this framework,…
