We propose a method to construct G_2-instantons over a compact twisted connected sum G_2-manifold, applying a gluing result of S\'a Earp and Walpuski to instantons over a pair of 7-manifolds with a tubular end (see arXiv:1310.7933). In our…

We review a method to construct $\rm{G}_2$--instantons over compact $\rm{G}_2$--manifolds arising as the twisted connected sum of a matching pair of Calabi-Yau $3$-folds with cylindrical end, based on the series of articles [SE15, SEW15,…

In this article we introduce a method to construct $\rm{G}_2$-instantons on $\rm{G}_2$-manifolds arising from Joyce's generalised Kummer construction. The method is based on gluing ASD instantons over ALE spaces to flat bundles on…

This is the first nontrivial construction to date of instantons over a compact manifold with holonomy exactly $G_2$. The HYM connections on asymptotically stable bundles over Kovalev's noncompact Calabi-Yau 3-folds, obtained in the first…

Using earlier work of S\'a Earp and the author [SEW13] we construct an irreducible unobstructed $G_2$-instanton on an $\mathrm{SO}(3)$-bundle over a twisted connected sum recently discovered by Crowley-Nordstr\"om [CN14].

We explain a construction of $G_2$-instantons on manifolds obtained by resolving $G_2$-orbifolds. This includes the case of $G_2$-instantons on resolutions of $T^7/\Gamma$ as a special case. The ingredients needed are a $G_2$-instanton on…

In G2 manifolds, 3-dimensional associative submanifolds (instantons) play a role similar to J-holomorphic curves in symplectic geometry. In [21], instantons in G2 manifolds were constructed from regular J-holomorphic curves in coassociative…

The goal of this paper is the construction of a compact manifold with G$_2$ holonomy and nodal singularities along circles using twisted connected sum method. This paper finds matching building blocks by solving the Calabi conjecture on…

We introduce the coupled instanton equations for a metric, a spinor, a three-form, and a connection on a bundle, over a spin manifold. Special solutions in dimensions $6$ and $7$ arise, respectively, from the Hull--Strominger and the…

We construct a smooth 1-parameter family of $G_2$-instantons over a generalised Kummer construction desingularising a $G_2$-orbifold discovered by Joyce. For this we extend the gluing construction for $G_2$-instantons developed by Walpuski…

Let $X$ be a closed $6-$dimensional manifold with a half-closed $SU(3)-$structure. On the product manifold $X\times S^{1}$, with respect to the product $G_{2}-$structure and on a pullback vector bundle from $X$, we show that any…

We study the moduli space of $G_2$-instantons on (projectively) flat bundles over torsion-free $G_2$-orbifolds. We prove that the moduli space is compact and smooth at the irreducible locus after adding small and generic holonomy…

We study homogeneous instantons on the seven dimensional Stiefel manifold V in the context of $G_2$ and Sasakian geometry. According to the reductive decomposition of V we provide an explicit description of all invariant $G_2$ and Sasakian…

Building on our previous work [2109.01110], we will compute a new kind of $G_2$ instanton partition function. By doing so, we complete a set of building blocks of the instanton partition function associated with a large class of $G_2$…

We give a construction of $G_2$ and $Spin(7)$ instantons on exceptional holonomy manifolds constructed by Bryant and Salamon, by using an ansatz of spherical symmetry coming from the manifolds being the total spaces of rank-4 vector…

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 deal with instanton bundles on the product ${\mathbb P}^1\times{\mathbb P}^2$ and the blow up of ${\mathbb P}^3$ along a line. We give an explicit construction leading to instanton bundles. Moreover, we also show that they correspond to…

We give a sufficient condition for an associative submanifold in a G2-manifold to appear as the bubbling locus of a sequence of G2-instantons, related to the existence of a Fueter section of a bundle of ASD instanton moduli spaces over said…

We present a construction of closed 7-manifolds of holonomy G_2, which generalises Kovalev's twisted connected sums by taking quotients of the pieces in the construction before gluing. This makes it possible to realise a wider range of…

For gauge groups $U(1)$ and $SO(3)$ we classify invariant $G_2$-instantons for homogeneous coclosed $G_2$-structures on Aloff-Wallach spaces $X_{k,l}$. As a consequence, we give examples where $G_2$-instantons can be used to distinguish…
