We show that the triple product defined by the spin domain (Bounded Symmetric Domain of type 4 in Cartan's classification) is closely related to the geometric product in Clifford algebras. We present the properties of this tri-product and…
The higher spin Laplace operator has been constructed recently as the generalization of the Laplacian in higher spin theory. This acts on functions taking values in arbitrary irreducible representations of the Spin group. In this paper, we…
This paper contains a review of the theoretical foundations of Clifford algebras, spinors and spinor bundles in the so-called co-frame formalism. A compact index-free notation is introduced, along with a series of identities useful for…
Relativistic particles with higher spin can be described in first quantization using actions with local supersymmetry on the worldline. First, we present a brief review of these actions and their use in first quantization. In a Dirac…
In this paper we develop the Hermitian refinement of symplectic Clifford analysis, by introducing a complex structure $\mathbb{J}$ on the canonical symplectic manifold $(\mathbb {R}^{2n},\omega_0)$. This gives rise to two symplectic Dirac…
In this paper using the Clifford and spin-Clifford bundles formalism we show how Weyl and Dirac equations formulated in the spin-Clifford bundle may be written in an equivalent form as generalized Maxwell like form formulated in the…
We prove a lower estimate for the first eigenvalue of the Dirac operator on a compact locally reducible Riemannian spin manifold with positive scalar curvature. We determine also the universal covers of the manifolds on which the smallest…
$CPT$ groups of higher spin fields are defined in the framework of automorphism groups of Clifford algebras associated with the complex representations of the proper orthochronous Lorentz group. Higher spin fields are understood as the…
Let $A$ be one of the following Clifford algebras : $\mathbb{R}_2 \cong \mathbb{H}$ or $\mathbb{R}_3$. For the algebra $A$, the automorphism group $Aut(A)$ and its invariants are well known. In this paper we will describe the invariants of…
Motivated by the supersymmetric version of Dirac's theory, chiral models in field theory, and the quest of a geometric fundament for the Standard Model, we describe an approach to the differential geometry of vector bundles on…
A Dirac bundle is a euclidean bundle over a riemannian manifold $M$ which is a compatible left $C\ell(M)$-module, together with a metric connection also compatible with the Clifford action in a natural way. We prove some vanishing theorems…
In this paper, we give a geometric expression for the multiplicities of the equivariant index of a spin-c Dirac operator.
In this paper, we establish a new eigenvalue estimate for the Kohn-Dirac operator on a compact CR manifold. The equality case of this estimate is characterized by the existence of a CR twistor spinor. We then classify CR manifolds carrying…
In this paper, we estimate the eigenvalues of the twisted Dirac operator on K\"ahler submanifolds of the complex projective space $CP^m$ and we discuss the sharpness of this estimate for the embedding $CP^d \hookrightarrow CP^m$.
We calculate the spectrum and a basis of eigenvectors for the Spin Dirac operator over the standard 3-sphere. For the spectrum, we use the method of Hitchin which we transfer to quaternions and explain in more detail. The eigenbasis (in…
We derive an inequality that relates nodal set and eigenvalues of a class of twisted Dirac operators on closed surfaces and point out how this inequality naturally arises as an eigenvalue estimate for the $\rm Spin^c$ Dirac operator. This…
In the present article we study basic aspects of the symplectic version of Clifford analysis associated to the symplectic Dirac operator. Focusing mostly on the symplectic vector space of real dimension $2$, this involves the analysis of…
Clifford algebras and Majorana conditions are analyzed in any spacetime. An index labeling inequivalent $\Gamma$-structures up to orthogonal conjugations is introduced. Inequivalent charge-operators in even-dimensions, invariant under Wick…
We prove that for cobordant closed spin manifolds of dimension $n\geq 3$ the associated spaces of metrics with invertible Dirac operator are homotopy equivalent. This is the spinorial counterpart of a similar result on positive scalar…
We study conformal $Spin$-subgeometry of submanifolds in a semi-Riemannian $Spin$-manifold, focusing on conformal $Spin$-manifolds $(M,[h])$ and their Poincar\'e-Einstein metrics $(X,g_+)$. Our approach is based on the spectral theory of…
