Let A be a positive integral power of a natural, conformally covariant diierential operator on tensor-spinors in a Riemannian manifold. Suppose that A is formally self-adjoint and has positive deenite leading symbol. For example, A could be the conformal Laplacian (Yamabe operator) L, or the square of the Dirac operator r =. Within the conformal class fg = e 2w g 0 j w 2 C 1 (M)g of an Einstein...
