Solves Dirac equation coupled to vector bundles.

We considered an extension of the standard functional for the Einstein-Dirac equation where the Dirac operator is replaced by the square of the Dirac operator and a real parameter controlling the length of spinors is introduced. For one distinguished value of the parameter, the resulting Euler-Lagrange equations provid…

Classification of ground state solutions to critical Dirac equation on spheres.

In this article we develop energy methods for a large class of linear and nonlinear Dirac-type equations in two-dimensional Minkowski space. We will derive existence results for several Dirac-type equations originating in quantum field theory, in particular for Dirac-wave maps to compact Riemannian manifolds.

We study the evolution equations for a regularized version of Dirac-geodesics, which are the one-dimensional version of Dirac-harmonic maps. We show that for the regularization being sufficiently large, the evolution equations subconverge to a regularized Dirac-geodesic. In the end, we discuss the limiting process of r…

Study Dirac-Einstein equations on manifolds with boundary, focusing on constant volume and chiral conditions.

We construct exact solutions of the Einstein-Dirac equation, which couples the gravitational field with an eigenspinor of the Dirac operator via the energy-momentum tensor. For this purpose we introduce a new field equation generalizing the notion of Killing spinors. The solutions of this spinorial field equation are c…

We develop analytical methods for nonlinear Dirac equations. Examples of such equations include Dirac-harmonic maps with curvature term and the equations describing the generalized Weierstrass representation of surfaces in three-manifolds. We provide the key analytical steps, i.e., small energy regularity and removable…

We develop estimates for the solutions and derive existence and uniqueness results of various local boundary value problems for Dirac equations that improve all relevant results known in the literature. With these estimates at hand, we derive a general existence, uniqueness and regularity theorem for solutions of Dirac…

Smooth solutions and classification of Dirac-Einstein equations on 3-manifolds.

We prove that, in the non-extreme Kerr-Newman black hole geometry, the Dirac equation has no normalizable, time-periodic solutions. A key tool is Chandrasekhar's separation of the Dirac equation in this geometry. A similar non-existence theorem is established in a more general class of stationary, axisymmetric metrics …

We study the qualitative behavior of nonlinear Dirac equations arising in quantum field theory on complete Riemannian manifolds. In particular, we derive monotonicity formulas and Liouville theorems for solutions of these equations. Finally, we extend our analysis to Dirac-harmonic maps with curvature term.

Study shows strict inequality for Dirac-type equation on spin manifolds, leading to existence results.

This paper develops a weighted $L^2$-method for the (half) Dirac equation. For Dirac bundles over closed Riemann surfaces, we give a sufficient condition for the solvability of the (half) Dirac equation in terms of a curvature integral. Applying this to the Dolbeault-Dirac operator, we establish an automatic transversa…

Study of Dirac equation with non-local nonlinearity on spheres.

We review some recent results on geometric equations on Lorentzian manifolds such as the wave and Dirac equations. This includes well-posedness and stability for various initial value problems, as well as results on the structure of these equations on black-hole spacetimes (in particular, on the Kerr solution), the ind…

The paper studies twistor sections of Dirac bundles and proves vanishing theorems.

We write the Dirac equation in curved 4-dimensional Lorentzian spacetime using concepts from the analysis of partial differential equations as opposed to geometric concepts.

Differential geomtrical methods for deriving the Dirac equation in Curved Spacetime are presented. Einstein's field equation is applied in a novel manner; in the most current standard reference, Birrell and Davies, 1994 [1], the suggestions for deriving the Dirac equation in Curved Spacetime make no mention of employin…

We prove sharp pointwise decay estimates for critical Dirac equations on $\mathbb{R}^n$ with $n\geq 2$. They appear for instance in the study of critical Dirac equations on compact spin manifolds, describing blow-up profiles, and as effective equations in honeycomb structures. For the latter case, we find excited state…

The purpose of this paper is to define the concept of multi-Dirac structures and to describe their role in the description of classical field theories. We begin by outlining a variational principle for field theories, referred to as the Hamilton-Pontryagin principle, and we show that the resulting field equations are t…

We study the Einstein-Dirac equation as well as the weak Killing equation on Riemannian spin manifolds with codimension one foliation. We prove that, for any manifold $M^n$ admitting real Killing spinors (resp. parallel spinors), there exist warped product metrics $\barη$ on $M^n \times {\mathbb R}$ such that $(M^n \ti…

The paper studies Dirac operators and their solutions concentrating near singular sets.

We get decay rate of higher derivatives of nonlinear massless Dirac equations with a kind of "good" spin null form. The method we rely on is similar to that of Li and Zang. However, they only give the decay rate of solution itself to nonlinear massless Dirac system.

Lower bounds for Dirac eigenvalues on manifolds with boundary.

In this article, we prove a Sobolev-like inequality for the Dirac operator on closed compact Riemannian spin manifolds with a nearly optimal Sobolev constant. As an application, we give a criterion for the existence of solutions to a nonlinear equation with critical Sobolev exponent involving the Dirac operator. We fin…

We consider the concept of Stokes-Dirac structures in boundary control theory proposed by van der Schaft and Maschke. We introduce Poisson reduction in this context and show how Stokes-Dirac structures can be derived through symmetry reduction from a canonical Dirac structure on the unreduced phase space. In this way, …

A new Dirac algebroid approach for nonholonomic systems.

For a $n$-dimensional spin manifold $M$ with a fixed spin structure and a spinor bundle $ΣM$, we prove an $ε$-regularity theorem for weak solutions to the nonlinear Dirac equation of cubic nonlinearity. This, in particular, answers a regularity question raised by Chen-Jost-Wang when $n=2$.

The field equation for a spin 1/2 massive charged particle propagating in spacetimes that are the direct product of 2-dimensional spaces is separated. Moreover, we use this result to attain the separability of the Dirac equation in some specific static black hole solutions whose horizons have topology $\mathbb{R}\times…

We study a new set of coupled field equations motivated by the non-linear supersymmetric sigma model of quantum field theory. These equations couple a map into a Riemannian manifold controlled by a harmonic map like action with a spinor field along that map. We study the solutions which we call Dirac-harmonic maps from…

In this paper, we write down Seiberg-Witten equations on contact metric manifolds of dimension 5. Any contact metric manifold has a spin^c structure. For Dirac equation we use Dirac type operators associated to the generalized Tanaka-Webster connection on spin^c spinor bundle of a contact metric manifold. For curvature…

Operator fields in the bundle of Dirac spinors and their conversion to spatial fields are considered. Some commutator equations are studied with the use of the conversion technique.

In this paper we provide a method to study critical points of strongly indefinite functionals on vector bundles. We focus mainly on energy functionals coupled with a fermionic part, that is with a Dirac-type operator. We consider the cases of the perturbed Dirac-Geodesics problem and the Yang-Mills-Dirac type equation …

A closed spin Kähler manifold of positive scalar curvature with smallest possible first eigenvalue of the Dirac operator is characterized by holomorphic spinors. It is shown that on any spin Kähler-Einstein manifold each holomorphic spinor is a finite sum of eigenspinors of the square of the Dirac operator. Vanishing t…
