We present a novel approach to the study of Yang-Mills instantons on quaternionic K\"ahler manifolds, based on an extension of the harmonic space method of constructing instantons on hyperk\"ahler manifolds. Our results establish a…

A natural approach to the construction of nearly G2 manifolds lies in resolving nearly G2 spaces with isolated conical singularities by gluing in asymptotically conical G2 manifolds modelled on the same cone. If such a resolution exits, one…

We present a general procedure to construct 6-dimensional manifolds with SU(3)-structure from SU(2)-structure 5-manifolds. We thereby obtain half-flat cylinders and sine-cones over 5-manifolds with Sasaki-Einstein SU(2)-structure. They are…

We classify $G_2$-instantons admitting $SU(2)^3$-symmetries, and construct a new family of examples on the spinor bundle of the 3-sphere, equipped with the asymptotically conical, co-homogeneity one $G_2$-metric of Bryant-Salamon. We also…

We give a complete description of the behaviour of Calabi-Yau instantons and monopoles with an $SU(2)^2$-symmetry, on Calabi-Yau 3-folds with asymptotically conical geometry and $SU(2)^2$ acting with co-homogeneity one. We consider gauge…

We introduce a method to construct closed rigid associative submanifolds in twisted connected sum $G_2$-manifolds. More precisely, we prove a gluing theorem of asymptotically cylindrical (ACyl) associative submanifolds in ACyl…

By fibering the duality between the $E_{8}\times E_{8}$ heterotic string on $T^{3}$ and M-theory on K3, we study heterotic duals of M-theory compactified on $G_{2}$ orbifolds of the form $T^{7}/\mathbb{Z}_{2}^{3}$. While the heterotic…

We construct and classify $SU(3)$-invariant primitive Hermitian Yang-Mills connections and $Sp(2)$-instantons with gauge groups $S = S^1$ and $S = SO(3)$ over the Calabi manifold $X = T^*CP^2$, the unique non-flat, complete,…
