We generalize the well-known lower estimates for the first eigenvalue of the Dirac operator on a compact Riemannian spin manifold proved by Th. Friedrich (1980) and O. Hijazi (1986, 1992). The special solutions of the Einstein-Dirac…
We analyze the Rarita--Schwinger (RS) massless theory in the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian approaches. At the Lagrangian level, the standard gamma-trace gauge fixing constraint leaves a spin-1/2 and a spin-3/2 propagating Poincar\'e group…
The purpose of this paper is: 1) to explain the Seiberg-Witten invariants, 2) to show that - on a K\"ahler surface - the solutions of the monopole equations can be interpreted as algebraic objects, namely effective divisors, 3) to give - as…
A spinor derivation is presented for quasilocal mean-curvature mass of spacelike 2-surfaces in General Relativity. The derivation is based on the Sen-Witten spinor identity and involves the introduction of novel nonlinear boundary…
It is well known that, due to vanishing theorems, there are no nontrivial finite action solutions to the Abelian Seiberg-Witten (SW) monopole equations on Euclidean four-dimensional space R^4. We show that this is no longer true for the…
There is a certain family of conformally invariant first order elliptic operators on Riemannian spin manifold which include Dirac operator as its first and simplest member. Their general definition is given and their basic properties are…
Let $X=\mathbb{C}\times\Sigma$ be the product of the complex plane and a compact Riemann surface. We establish a classification theorem of solutions to the Seiberg-Witten equation on $X$ with finite analytic energy. The spin bundle $S^+\to…
The prepotential and spectral curve are described for a smooth interpolation between an enlarged N=4 SUSY and ordinary N=2 SUSY Yang-Mills theory in four dimensions, obtained by compactification from five dimensions with non-trivial…
It is shown that the non-relativistic `Dirac' equation of L\'evy-Leblond, we used recently to describe a spin $1/2$ field interacting non-relativistically with a Chern-Simons gauge field, can be obtained by lightlike reduction from $3+1$…
All relativistic corrections to the Scr{\"o}dinger equation which determine the interlink between spin and orbit of moving particles, are directly calculated from the Dirac equation using the spin invariant operators. It is shown that among…
We study the anomaly inflow of the Rarita-Schwinger field with gauge symmetry in $3$ dimensions. We find that global anomalies of the Rarita-Schwinger field are obtained by the spectral flow, which is similar to Witten's $SU(2)$ global…
In this paper, we study the Seiberg-Witten equations on the product R x Y, where Y is a compact 3-manifold with boundary. Following the approach of Salamon and Wehrheim in the instanton case, we impose Lagrangian boundary conditions for the…
We study the eigenvalue problem of the squared Pauli-Lubanski vector, W^{2}, in the Spinor-Vector representation space and derive from it that the -s(s+1)m^{2} subspace with s=3/2, i.e. spin 3/2 in the rest frame, is pinned down by the one…
By analysing the work of Campolattaro we argue that the second Seiberg-Witten equation over the Spin^c_4 manifold, i.e., F^+_{ij}=< M,S_ij M >, is the generalization of the Campolattaro's description of the electromagnetic field tensor…
Seiberg-Witten solutions of four-dimensional supersymmetric gauge theories possess rich but involved integrable structures. The goal of this paper is to show that an isomonodromy problem provides a unified framework for understanding those…
In this article we study the quantization and causal properties of a massive spin 3/2 Rarita-Schwinger field on spatially flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) spacetimes. We construct Zuckerman's universal conserved current and prove that…
The aim of this paper is to correct a mistake in earlier work on the conformal invariance of Rarita-Schwinger operators and use the method of correction to develop properties of some conformally invariant operators in the Rarita-Schwinger…
We give explicit formulas for all odd order differential intertwinors on the subbundle of the bundle of spinor-$k$-forms that are annihilated by the Clifford multiplication over the odd dimensional standard sphere. The Dirac and…
In this paper we study a generalization of the classical Rarita-Schwinger type operators and construct their fundamental solutions. We give some basic integral formulas related to these operators. We also establish that the projection…
This paper is a mixture of expository material and current research material. Among new results are examples of generalised harmonic spinors and their gauged version, the generalised Seiberg-Witten equations.
