Spin-c Quantization, Prequantization and Cutting

In this thesis we extend Lerman’s cutting construction to spin-c structures. Every spin-c structure on an even-dimensional Riemannian manifold gives rise to a Dirac operator D+ acting on sections of the associated spinor bundle. The spin-c quantization of a spin-c manifold is defined to be ker(D+)−c...
