The geometry of nonholonomic bundle gerbes, provided with nonlinear connection structure, and nonholonomic gerbe modules is elaborated as the theory of Clifford modules on nonholonomic manifolds which positively fail to be spin. We explore…
The first time that the connection between isometric immersion of surfaces and solutions of the Dirac equation appeared in the literature was in the seminal paper of Thomas Friedrich in 1998. In consequence of that, several authors…
Let $\FRAK{g}$ be a classical simple Lie superalgebra. To every nilpotent orbit $\cal O$ in $\FRAK{g}_0$ we associate a Clifford algebra over the field of rational functions on $\cal O$. We find the rank, $k(\cal O)$ of the bilinear form…
This paper deals with the problem of factorizing integer powers of the Laplace operator acting on functions taking values in higher spin representations. This is a far-reaching generalization of the well-known fact that the square of the…
The main result of this article is a Llarull-type rigidity statement for scalar curvature on Riemannian spin manifolds with cone-like singularities in odd dimensions. The even dimensional analog was proven in an earlier work together with…

We study a natural Dirac operator on a Lagrangian submanifold of a K\"ahler manifold. We first show that its square coincides with the Hodge-de Rham Laplacian provided the complex structure identifies the Spin structures of the tangent and…
In this paper we define a Dirichlet-to-Neumann map for a twisted Dirac Laplacian acting on bundle-valued spinors over a spin manifold. We show that this map is a pseudodifferential operator of order 1 whose symbol determines the Taylor…

The linearization of a quadratic form gives rise to a Clifford algebra structure, as seen in Dirac's factorization of the d'Alembert operator. A similar structure known as a generalized Clifford algebra arises from the continuation of this…
We prove upper and lower bounds for the eigenvalues of the Dirac operator and the Laplace operator on 2-dimensional tori. In particluar we give a lower bound for the first eigenvalue of the Dirac operator for non-trivial spin structures. It…
We study the Dirac spectrum on compact Riemannian spin manifolds $M$ equipped with a metric connection $\nabla$ with skew torsion $T\in\Lambda^3M$ by means of twistor theory. An optimal lower bound for the first eigenvalue of the Dirac…
We consider a family of compact manifolds which shrinks with respect to an appropriate parameter to a graph. The main result is that the spectrum of the Laplace-Beltrami operator converges to the spectrum of the (differential) Laplacian on…
General braided counterparts of classical Clifford algebras are introduced and investigated. Braided Clifford algebras are defined as Chevalley-Kahler deformations of the corresponding braided exterior algebras. Analogs of the spinor…
We consider the Dirac Operator acting on the Clifford Algebra ${C\ell}_{m}$. We show that under critical assumptions on the potential and the spinor field the equation is subject to an integrability by compensation phenomenon and has a…

This paper studies Dirac operators on end-periodic spin manifolds of dimension at least 4. We provide a sufficient condition for such an operator to be Fredholm for a generic end-periodic metric; this condition is shown to be necessary in…
We examine some of the subtleties inherent in formulating a theory of spinors on a manifold with a smooth degenerate metric. We concentrate on the case where the metric is singular on a hypersurface that partitions the manifold into…
We introduce a tropical version of the Fukaya algebra of a Lagrangian submanifold. Tropical graphs arise as large-scale behavior of pseudoholomorphic disks under a multiple cut operation on a symplectic manifold that produces a collection…
We provide a generalized definition for the quantized Clifford algebra introduced by Hayashi using another parameter $k$ that we call the twist. For a field of characteristic not equal to $2$, we provide a basis for our quantized Clifford…
