Curvature of the line bundle $\mathcal{O}(2)$ on the twistor space
Let $M^4$ be a closed Riemannian manifold and $Z:=S\big(\Lambda^2_+(M)\big)$ denote the twistor space of $M,$ i.e., the sphere bundle of the self-dual 2-forms on $M$. Now at a point $(m,J)\in Z$ the t …

Identifying a $4$-form on a $6$-dimensional manifold
Let $M$ be a closed $6$-dimensional Riemannian manifold with a spin$^{\mathbb{C}}$ structure. It is known that real $4$-forms on $M$ act on the positive-spinors as trace-free hermitian endomorphisms b …

Bound of the spinor element in Seiberg-Witten equation for a Kähler surface
Let's say we want to solve a perturbed version of SW equations on a closed Kähler manifold $(X,\omega):$
\begin{align*}
&D_A\phi=0\\
&F_A+it\omega=q(\phi)=\phi\otimes\phi^*-\frac{|\phi|^2}{2}\text{Id} …
