Symplectic Killing spinors

Svatopluk Krýsl (2012)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Let ( M , ω ) be a symplectic manifold admitting a metaplectic structure (a symplectic analogue of the Riemannian spin structure) and a torsion-free symplectic connection . Symplectic Killing spinor fields for this structure are sections of the symplectic spinor bundle satisfying a certain first order partial differential equation and they are the main object of this paper. We derive a necessary condition which has to be satisfied by a symplectic Killing spinor field. Using this condition one may easily...

The gradient flow of Higgs pairs

Jiayu Li, Xi Zhang (2011)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We consider the gradient flow of the Yang–Mills–Higgs functional of Higgs pairs on a Hermitian vector bundle ( E , H 0 ) over a Kähler surface ( M , ω ) , and study the asymptotic behavior of the heat flow for Higgs pairs at infinity. The main result is that the gradient flow with initial condition ( A 0 , φ 0 ) converges, in an appropriate sense which takes into account bubbling phenomena, to a critical point ( A , φ ) of this functional. We also prove that the limiting Higgs pair ( A , φ ) can be extended smoothly to a vector bundle E over...

The singularity structureοf the Yang-Mills configuration space

Jürgen Fuchs (1997)

Banach Center Publications

The geometric description of Yang–Mills theories and their configuration space is reviewed. The presence of singularities in M is explained and some of their properties are described. The singularity structure is analysed in detail for structure group SU(2). This review is based on [28].
