Abstract

We study the properties of the transversal Killing and twistor spinors for a Riemannian foliation with a transverse spin structure. And we investigate the relations between them. As an application, we give a new lower bound for the eigenvalues of the basic Dirac operator by using the transversal twistor operator.
