Remarks on pure spinors
The authors work on Clifford algebras and spinor structures in higher dimensions corresponding to recent researches on fundamental interactions and their unification in physics. In this note, they briefly (i) describe the relation between spinor connections on low-dimensional spheres and simple gauge configurations, (ii) outline an approach to the notion of pure spinors in spaces of nonneutral signature and, in particular, in conformal extensions of spacetime, (iii) indicate some topological nontrivial configurations associated with pure spinors, and (iv) show how the 'purity constraint' may lead to 'mass term' in the Weyl equation for pure spinors in a space of signature (3,4).
