Witten Deformation and Divergence-Free Symmetric Killing 2-Tensors
By using a Morse function and a Witten deformation argument, we obtain an upper bound for the dimensions of the space of divergence-free symmetric Killing p-tensors on a closed Riemannian manifold and explicitly calculate it for p=2.
