Abstract

We consider the Dirac operator on fibrations overS 1 which have up to holonomy a warped product metric. Wegive lower bounds for the eigenvalues on M and if the Diracoperator on the typical fibre F has a kernel, we calculatethe corresponding part of the spectrum on M explicitly.

Moreover, we discuss the dependence of the spectrum of theholonomy and obtain bounds for the multiplicity of the eigenvalues.
