Aksteiner, Steffen: Properties of Killing spinors
Time: Fri 2014-10-17 09.15 - 10.15
Location: Room 3418, Lindstedtsvägen 25, 4th floor, Department of mathematics, KTH
Participating: Steffen Aksteiner, Albert Einstein Institute
Killing spinors have a wide range of applications in algebraically special spacetimes. After reviewing its solution space on Minkowski and Petrov type D backgrounds we will discuss the relation to symmetries of the spin-s equation and to charges for linearized gravity.
