A Weighted L-Estimate of the Witten Spinor in Asymptotically Schwarzschild Manifolds
We derive a weighted L-estimate of the Witten spinor in a complete Riemannian spin manifold (Mn, g) of non-negative scalar curvature which is asymptotically Schwarzschild. The interior geometry of M enters this estimate only via the lowest eigenvalue of the square of the Dirac operator on a conformal compactification of M .
متن کاملA Level Set Analysis of the Witten Spinor with Applications to Curvature Estimates
We analyze the level sets of the norm of the Witten spinor in an asymptotically flat Riemannian spin manifold of positive scalar curvature. Level sets of small area are constructed. We prove curvature estimates which quantify that, if the total mass becomes small, the manifold becomes flat with the exception of a set of small surface area. These estimates involve either a volume bound or a spec...
متن کاملOn Conformal Powers of the Dirac Operator on Spin Manifolds
The well known conformal covariance of the Dirac operator acting on spinor fields does not extend to its powers in general. For odd powers of the Dirac operator we derive an algorithmic construction in terms of associated tractor bundles computing correction terms in order to achieve conformal covariance. These operators turn out to be formally (anti-) self-adjoint. Working out this algorithm w...
متن کاملInverse Problem for Interior Spectral Data of the Dirac Operator with Discontinuous Conditions
In this paper, we study the inverse problem for Dirac differential operators with discontinuity conditions in a compact interval. It is shown that the potential functions can be uniquely determined by the value of the potential on some interval and parts of two sets of eigenvalues. Also, it is shown that the potential function can be uniquely determined by a part of a set of values of eigenfun...
متن کاملThe Dirac Spectrum on Manifolds with Gradient Conformal Vector Fields
We show that the Dirac operator on a spin manifold does not admit L eigenspinors provided the metric has a certain asymptotic behaviour and is a warped product near infinity. These conditions on the metric are fulfilled in particular if the manifold is complete and carries a non-complete vector field which outside a compact set is gradient conformal and non-vanishing.
