Abstract: We study Dirac operator zero-modes on a torus for gauge background with uniform field strengths. Under the basic translations of the torus coordinates the wave functions are subject to twisted periodic conditions. In a suitable torus coordinates the zero-mode wave functions can be related to holomorphic functions of the complex torus coordinates. We construct the zero-mode wave functions that satisfy the twisted periodic conditions. The chirality and the degeneracy of the zero-modes are uniquely determined by the gauge background and are consistent with the index theorem.

Review text

For a Dirac operator on a torus, the zero modes are investigated for a gauge background with constant field strength. Using the periodicity conditions in suitable coordinates, the zero mode wave functions can be expressed by holomorphic functions. With the zero mode wave functions, it is possible to construct a complete set of eigenspinors.
