A note on D(k,0) Killing spinors (Q790447)

The author explicitly integrates the equations for a D(k,0) Killing spinor field, i.e. for a totally symmetric Killing spinor field having 2k indices, subject to the hypothesis that the left conformal curvature does not vanish and that either \(k\neq 2,4,6,..\). or that the Einstein vacuum field equations are satisfied. Contents include an Introduction, Integrability conditions, Integration of the equations, Induced Killing vectors, conclusions, and an Appendix.
