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 derive various pinching results for small Dirac eigenvalues using the classification of $\text{spin}^c$ and spin manifolds admitting nontrivial Killing spinors. For this, we introduce a notion of convergence for $\text{spin}^c$ manifolds…
