Supposing that X is a Riemannian manifold, a Z/2 spinor on X is defined by a data set consisting of a closed set in X to be denoted by Z, a real line bundle over X-Z, and a nowhere zero section on X-Z of the tensor product of the real line…
A $\mathbb Z_2$-harmonic spinor on a 3-manifold $Y$ is a solution of the Dirac equation on a bundle that is twisted around a submanifold $\mathcal Z$ of codimension 2 called the singular set. This article investigates the local structure of…
It is shown that every bundle $\varSigma\to M$ of complex spinor modules over the Clifford bundle $\Cl(g)$ of a Riemannian space $(M,g)$ with local model $(V,h)$ is associated with an lpin ("Lipschitz") structure on $M$, this being a…
We introduce the moduli space of quasi-parabolic $SL(2,\mathbb{C})$-Higgs bundles over a compact Riemann surface $\Sigma$ and consider a natural involution, studying its fixed point locus when $\Sigma$ is $\mathbb{C} \mathbb{P}^1$ and…
We use the symmetries of the tetrahedron, octahedron and icosahedron to construct local models for a $\mathbb{Z}/2$ harmonic 1-form or spinor in 3-dimensions near a singular point in its zero loci. The local models are $\mathbb{Z}/2$…
Complete, conformally flat metrics of constant positive scalar curvature on the complement of $k$ points in the $n$-sphere, $k \ge 2$, $n \ge 3$, were constructed by R\. Schoen [S2]. We consider the problem of determining the moduli space…
This article proves that the zero locus of a $\mathbb{Z}/2$ harmonic spinor on a 4 dimensional manifold is 2-rectifiable and has locally finite Minkowski content.
Just as a symmetric surface with separating fixed locus halves into two oriented bordered surfaces, an arbitrary symmetric surface halves into two oriented symmetric half-surfaces, i.e. surfaces with crosscaps. Motivated in part by the…
The full classification of Riemannian $3$-symmetric spaces is presented. Up to Riemannian products the main building blocks consist in (possibly symmetric) spaces with semisimple isometry group, nilpotent Lie groups of step at most $2$ and…
On a compact Riemann surface $\Sigma$ of genus $g>1$, equipped with a complex vector bundle $E$ of rank $2$ and degree zero let $M_H$ be the moduli space of Higgs bundles. $M_H$ admits a $\mathbb C^{\star}$-action and to each stable…
Let M be a closed oriented 4-manifold, with Riemannian metric g, and a spin^C structure induced by an almost-complex structure \omega. Each connection A on the determinant line bundle induces a unique connection \nabla^A, and Dirac operator…
Let $\mathfrak{M}(\Sigma)$ be an open and connected subset of the space of hyperbolic metrics on a closed orientable surface, and $\mathfrak{M}(M)$ an open and connected subset of the space of metrics on an orientable manifold of dimension…
Let $\Sigma$ be a hyperbolic link with $m$ components in a 3-dimensional manifold $X$. In this paper, we will show that the moduli space of marked hyperbolic cone structures on the pair $(X, \Sigma)$ with all cone angle less than $2\pi /3$…
In my previous paper, I prove the existence of the Kuranishi structure for the moduli space $\mathfrak{M}$ of zero loci of $\mathbb{Z}/2$-harmonic spinors on a 3-manifold. So a nature question we can ask is to compute the virtual dimension…
We show that for an orientable non-spin manifold with fundamental group $\mathbb{Z}_2$ and universal cover $S^2\times S^3,$ the moduli space of metrics of nonnegative sectional curvature has infinitely many path components. The…
Let M be a closed spin manifold of dimension congruent to 3 modulo 4. We give a simple proof of the fact that the space of metrics on M with invertible Dirac operator is either empty or it has infinitely many path components.
We prove that for any Riemannian metric $g$ on a closed orientable surface $\Sigma$ and any spacelike embedding $f:\Sigma \rightarrow M$ in a pseudo-Riemannian manifold $(M,h)$, the embedding $f$ can be $C^{0}$-approximated by a smooth…
On a closed connected oriented manifold $M$ we study the space $\mathcal{M}_\|(M)$ of all Riemannian metrics which admit a non-zero parallel spinor on the universal covering. Such metrics are Ricci-flat, and all known Ricci-flat metrics are…
We consider a surface $\Sigma$ of genus $g \geq 3$, either closed or with exactly one puncture. The mapping class group $\Gamma$ of $\Sigma$ acts symplectically on the abelian moduli space $M = \Hom(\pi_1(\Sigma), U(1)) =…
Let $(M,\Omega)$ be a closed $8$-dimensional manifold equipped with a generically non-integrable $\mathrm{Spin}(7)$-structure $\Omega$. We prove that if $\mathrm{Hom}(H^{3}(M,\mathbb{Z}), \mathbb{Z}_{2}) = 0$ then the moduli space of…
