Abstract

Crowley and Nordstr\"{o}m introduced an invariant of G2G_2-structures on the tangent bundle of a closed 7-manifold, taking values in the integers modulo 48. Using the spectral description of this invariant due to Crowley, Goette and Nordstr\"{o}m, we compute it for many of the closed torsion-free G2G_2-manifolds defined by Joyce's generalized Kummer construction.
