Abstract

Using the notion of subprincipal symbol, we give a necessary condition for the existence of twisted D-modules simple along a smooth involutive submanifold of the cotangent bundle to a complex manifold. As an application, we prove that there are no generalized massless field equations with non-trivial twist on grassmannians, and in particular that the Penrose transform does not extend to the twisted case.
