Higher spin Killing spinors on 3-dimensional manifolds

arXiv:2603.21099

Abstract

We define higher spin Killing spinors on Riemannian spin manifolds in arbitrary dimension and study them in detail in dimension three. We prove a rigidity result for 3-dimensional manifolds admitting higher spin Killing spinors and give expressions for higher spin Killing spinors on the 3-sphere and the 3-hyperbolic space explicitly. We also investigate the Killing spinor type equation on integral spin bundles.
