In the Euclidean setting, the Dirac operator was constructed so as to give the square of the Laplacian. Now for a Kähler manifold with a spin$^c$ structure we have the a corresponding Dirac operator $D$. Moreover, we have a Laplacian $(d+d^{\ast})$, where $d^{\ast}$ is the coadjoint $\ast d \ast $, for $\ast$ the Hodge $\ast$-mapping. Now in the case where the manifold is also symmetric we get a relationship between the square of the Dirac and the Laplacian that involves an extra curvature term. Does this extend to all Kähler manifolds, and if it does, what is the exact relationship?
