Abstract

As additional examples of the two-component spinor formalism, the self-dual Yang–Mills fields are considered and the local form of the metric of the \(\mathcal{H}\) and \(\mathcal{H}\mathcal{H}\) spaces is derived. The definition of the Killing bispinors is given and some elementary results are obtained with the aid of the two-component spinor formalism.
