Lorentzian manifolds with special holonomy and parallel spinors

Leistner, Thomas (2002)

Proceedings of the 21st Winter School "Geometry and Physics"

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 manifold...
