Twistor Spinors with Zero on Lorentzian 5-space
Abstract. We present in this paper a C-metric on an open neighbourhood of the origin in R5. The metric is of Lorentzian signature (1, 4) and admits a solution to the twistor equation for spinors with a unique isolated zero at the origin. The metric is not conformally flat in any neighbourhood of the origin. The construction is based on the Eguchi-Hanson metric with parallel spinors on Riemannia...
متن کاملAbout Twistor Spinors with Zero in Lorentzian Geometry
We describe the local conformal geometry of a Lorentzian spin manifold (M, g) admitting a twistor spinor φ with zero. Moreover, we describe the shape of the zero set of φ. If φ has isolated zeros then the metric g is locally conformally equivalent to a static monopole. In the other case the zero set consists of null geodesic(s) and g is locally conformally equivalent to a Brinkmann metric. Our ...
متن کاملTwistor spinors on Lorentzian symmetric spaces
An indecomposable Riemannian symmetric space which admits nontrivial twistor spinors has constant sectional curvature. Furthermore, each homogeneous Riemannian manifold with parallel spinors is at. In the present paper we solve the twistor equation on all indecomposable Lorentzian symmetric spaces explicitly. In particular, we show that there are-in contrast to the Riemannian case-indecom-posab...
متن کاملA Note on Twistor Spinors with Zeros in Lorentzian Geometry
We show in this note that if a twistor spinor has a zero on a Lorentzian spin manifold M of arbitrary dimension then the twistor is almost everywhere on M locally conformally equivalent to a parallel spinor.
متن کاملLorentzian twistor spinors and CR-geometry
In the present paper we study a relation between the Lorentzian twistor equation and CR-geometry. Besides the Dirac operator there is a second important conformally covariant differential operator acting on the spinor fields Γ(S) of a smooth semiRiemannian spin manifold (M,g) of dimension n and index k, the so-called twistor operator D. The twistor operator is defined as the composition of the ...
