| dcterms.abstract | It is known that if an oriented riemannian manifold is spin, then there exists a bundle of real Clifford modules which are pointwise irreducible. Similarly, if the manifold is spin^c, then there exists a bundle of complex pointwise irreducible Clifford modules. However, the converse of these statements is only partly true, and this thesis explores it in various cases. | |
