We investigate the second Dirac eigenvalue on Riemannian manifolds admitting a Killing spinor. In small dimensions the whole Dirac spectrum depends on special eigenvalues on functions and 1-forms. We compute and discuss the formulas in…

We show that, within a broad stationary-axisymmetric class, Kerr-type separability and hidden symmetry arise as a local consequence of the Einstein equations. Without assuming separability, algebraic speciality, Killing--Yano symmetry, or…
