I am currently studying some basic materials about Majorana spinor 1 form.
I know usual (0-form) Majorana spinor very well(i guess). They satisfy the $\psi^c = \psi$ for majoran spinor $\psi$ and from them we can do some computation as follows
\begin{align}
&\overline{\lambda} \chi = \overline{\chi} \lambda \\
& \overline{\lambda} \gamma_\mu \chi = - \overline{\chi} \gamma_\mu \lambda
\end{align}
Deriving above formula one use $\psi^c = \psi$ and $\lambda_a \chi_b = -\chi_b \lambda_a$. and so on.
Here come back to the problem, for Majorana spinor 1 form, only surviving form of majorana spinor is known as $\overline{\psi} \gamma^a \psi \neq 0$ and $\overline{\psi} \gamma^{ab} \psi \neq 0$.
From deriving above things i got stucked.
I think my main problem is the lack of concept for Majorna spinor 1 form
First usual spinor 1 form that i know is
\begin{align}
A = A_\mu dx^{\mu}
\end{align}
In that sense i can do for Majorana spinor 1 form
\begin{align}
\psi = \psi_{\mu} dx^{\mu}
\end{align}
What i want to know is for 1-form Majorna spinor case is still grassman property holds?
$i.e$
\begin{align}
\Psi \chi = -\chi \Psi
\end{align}
or it only holds for coefficient $\psi_\mu$, $\chi_\mu$ for one form? $i.e$ for $\Psi = \psi_\mu dx^\mu$, $\chi = \chi_\mu dx^\mu$
\begin{align}
\psi_\mu \chi_\nu = - \chi_\nu \psi_\mu
\end{align}
I know for the wedge product of $p$ and $q$ form gives
\begin{align}
w^{(p)} \wedge w^{(q)} = (-1)^{pq} w^{(q)} \wedge w^{(p)}
\end{align}
What i really want to do is following derivation for Majorna spinor 1 form
\begin{align}
\overline{\Psi} \gamma^5 \Psi = 0
\end{align}
\begin{align}
\overline{\Psi} \gamma^5 \Psi = \Psi^{a} (C\gamma^5)_{ab} \Psi^b =
\Psi^{a} \Psi^b(C\gamma^5)_{ab} = (-?)\Psi^b\Psi^{a} ( C \gamma^5)_{ab}
\end{align}
Does the $-$ sign holds?
I can do the other leftover derivation except above parts.
If you know something please let me learn from you.
