For questions about spin manifolds, the groups $\operatorname{Spin}(n)$, as well as generalisations such as $\operatorname{Pin}^{\pm}(n)$ and $\operatorname{Spin}^c(n)$. This tag should also be used for any questions about the geometry of spin manifolds, including questions involving Dirac operators and the Lichnerowicz formula.

Calculation of the top Chern class of spinor bundle over $S^{2n}$

I will present an explicit calculation using Chern-Weil theory, which makes an amusing use of Legendre's duplication formula for the gamma function. The Chern character form of a vector bundle $E$ wit …

What are "good" examples of spin manifolds?

If $M$ is a spin manifold, then any submanifold of codimension 1 is also a spin manifold. This yields a lot of examples, for example, that $S^n$ is spin etc. (I may not have understood your point com …
