We study the existence of a skew Killing spinor on 2- and 3-dimensional Riemannian spin manifolds. We establish the integrability conditions and prove that these spinor fields correspond to twistor spinors in the two dimensional case while, up to a conformal change of the metric, they correspond to parallel spinors in the three dimensional case.

The author studies the holonomy group of a simply connected indecomposable and reducible Lorentzian spin manifold under the condition that they admit parallel spinors. He shows that there are only two possible situations: either the manifold is a so-called Brinkmann wave or it has Abelian holonomy and is a pp-manifold – a generalization of a plane-wave. The author gives also sufficient conditions for a Brinkmann wave to have as holonomy the semidirect product of holonomy group of a Riemannian...
