Example 1.
First create a vector bundle with base coordinates and fiber coordinates . For spinor applications, it is tacitly assumed that are complex coordinates with complex conjugates .
Define spinors and and calculate their complex conjugates.
Example 2.
The two type Kronecker delta spinors are complex conjugates of each other.
Example 3.
The soldering form is always a Hermitian spinor. To check this calculate, first define the solder form , then conjugate and interchange the 2nd and 3rd indices. The result is the original solder form .
Example 4.
Use the Maple assuming command to simplify the complex conjugate of a spinor-tensor containing a real parameter .
Example 6.
In some applications complex coordinates on the base space are used. Suppose, for example, that and are real coordinates and that is a complex coordinate with complex conjugate .
Use the keyword argument conjugatecoordinates to specify that the conjugate of is (and the conjugate of is ).
