Radoslaw Kycia (Masaryk university):

CoPoincare lemma and applications to physics

Abstract:

I will outline the construction of the homotopy operator for codifferential defined on Riemannian manifolds. This notion can be used to solve, in a star-shaped open subset, many equations of mathematical physics including Dirac, Maxwell and string theory problems. I will also present an intriguing correspondence between (co)homotopy operator and Clifford algebra. I will also discuss various incarnations of spinors that appear in the literature. The talk is based on the draft [2] and [1].
