The Lanczos potential for Weyl-candidate tensors exists only in four dimensions
We prove that a Lanczos potential L_abc for the Weyl candidate tensor W_abcd
does not generally exist for dimensions higher than four. The technique is
simply to assume the existence of such a potential in dimension n, and then
check the integrability conditions for the assumed system of differential
equations; if the integrability conditions yield another non-trivial
differential system for L_abc and W_abcd, then this system's integrability
conditions should be checked; and so on. When we find a non-trivial condition
involving only W_abcd and its derivatives, then clearly Weyl candidate tensors
failing to satisfy that condition cannot be written in terms of a Lanczos
potential L_abc.Comment: 11 pages, LaTeX, Heavily revised April 200
