EGUCHI-HANSON TYPE
arXiv:2305.18344v1 [math.DG] 26 May 2023
1. Introduction
spin manifold implies that the manifold is Ricci-flat, parallel spinors only
exist on the Eguchi-Hanson metrics, and we find the space of complex par-
allel spinors are complex 2-dimensional. For the metrics of Eguchi-Hanson
type with the zero scalar curvature, we separate variables for the harmonic
spinors and obtain the solutions explicitly.

Since the left hand side is independent on r, but the right hand side contains
function f (r), it must be
Φ3 = Φ4 = 0.
∂ψ Φ = 0.
Therefore
Φ1 Φ1
∂θ = ∂φ = 0.
Φ2 Φ2
So Φ1 and Φ2 are arbitrary complex constants and the proof of the theorem
is complete. Q.E.D.
