Generalized Dirac Operators on Lorentzian Manifolds and Propagation of Singularities

Abstract

We survey the correct definition of a generalized Dirac operator on a Space-Time and the classicla result about propagation of singularities. This says that light travels along light-like geodesics. Finally we show this is also true for generalized Dirac operators.
