The spinors appearing in the Killing spinor equation
Dµϵ=∇µϵ+1/2ℓγµϵ+i/4Fν1ν2γν1ν2γµϵ−i/ℓAµϵ=0 are Dirac spinors....
These spinors can be written as complexified forms on R2 ; if Δ denotes the space of Dirac spinors then Δ=Λ∗(R2)⊗C. A generic spinor η can therefore be written as η=λ1+µiei+σe12 where e1 , e2 are 1-forms on R2 , and i=1,2;e12=e1∧e2 .λ, µi and σare complex functions.
My question is why is this space denoted by Δ=Λ∗(R2)⊗C?
How can I understand this notation? Given that the title of that section was spinors in four dimensions, where does R2 come from? Shouldn't it be R4? Reference is here on page 2: http://arxiv.org/abs/hep-th/0610128.
