We use the Dirac operator method to prove a scalar-mean curvature comparison theorem for spin manifolds which carry iterated conical singularities. Our approach is to study the index theory of a twisted Dirac operator on such singular…

In this note, we consider the Dirac operator $D$ on a Riemannian symmetric space $M$ of noncompact type. Using representation theory we show that $D$ has point spectrum iff the $\hat A$-genus of its compact dual does not vanish. In this…

Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian spin manifold. The Atiyah-Singer index theorem yields a lower bound for the dimension of the kernel of the Dirac operator. We prove that this bound can be attained by changing the Riemannian metric g on an…
