Abstract

Let XX be a closed 66-dimensional manifold with a half-closed SU(3)SU(3)-structure. On the product manifold X×S1X\times S^{1}, with respect to the product G2G_{2}-structure and on a pullback vector bundle from XX, we show that any G2G_{2}-instanton is equivalent to a Hermitian Yang-Mills connection on XX via a "broken gauge". This result reveals the topological type of the moduli of G2G_{2}-instantons on X×S1X\times S^{1}. In dimension 88, similar result holds for moduli of Spin(7)Spin(7)-instantons. A generalization and an example are given.
