Motivated by analogous results in locally conformal symplectic geometry, we study different classes of G$_2$-structures defined by a locally conformal closed 3-form. In particular, we give a complete characterization of invariant exact…

The goal of the paper is to give characterization of closed connected manifolds which admit a global multisympletic 3-form of some algebraic type. A generic type of such 3-form is equivalent to a G2-structure. This is the most interesting…

In this article, we develop foundational theory for geometries of the space of closed $G_2$-structures in a given cohomology class as an infinite-dimensional manifold. We introduce Sobolev-type metrics, construct their Levi-Civita…

We construct new compact manifolds endowed with closed $\mathrm{G}_2$ structures that satisfy the topological properties found by Joyce and Baraglia for the existence of a torsion-free $\mathrm{G}_2$ structure in the same cohomology class.…

This article shows that given any orientable 3-manifold X, the 7-manifold T^*X x R admits a closed G_2-structure varphi=Re(Omega)+omega\wedge dt where Omega is a certain complex-valued 3-form on T^*X; next, given any 2-dimensional…

In this article we study the relation between flat solvmanifolds and $G_2$-geometry. First, we give a classification of 7-dimensional flat splittable solvmanifolds using the classification of finite subgroups of $\mathsf{GL}(n,\mathbb{Z})$…

There are only 10 Euclidean forms, that is flat closed three dimensional manifolds: six are orientable and four are non-orientable. The aim of this paper is to describe all types of $n$-fold coverings over orientable Euclidean manifolds…

We prove that torsion-free G_2 structures are (weakly) dynamically stable along the Laplacian flow for closed G_2 structures. More precisely, given a torsion-free G_2 structure $\varphi$ on a compact 7-manifold, the Laplacian flow with…

We exhibit many examples of closed symplectic manifolds on which there is an autonomous Hamiltonian whose associated flow has no nonconstant periodic orbits (the only previous explicit example in the literature was the torus T^2n (n\geq 2)…

There is a strong analogy between compact, torsion-free $G_2$-manifolds $(X,\varphi,*\varphi)$ and Calabi-Yau 3-folds $(Y,J,g,\omega)$. We can also generalize $(X,\varphi,*\varphi)$ to 'tamed almost $G_2$-manifolds' $(X,\varphi,\psi)$,…

Homogeneous compatible almost complex structures on symplectic manifolds are studied, focusing on those which are special, meaning that their Chern-Ricci form is a multiple of the symplectic form. Non Chern-Ricci flat ones are proven to be…

We introduce the notion of complex $G_2$ manifold $M_{\mathbb C}$, and complexification of a $G_2$ manifold $M\subset M_{\mathbb C}$. As an application we show the following: If $(Y,s)$ is a closed oriented $3$-manifold with a $Spin^{c}$…

We provide the complete classification of seven-dimensional manifolds endowed with a closed non-parallel G$_2$-structure and admitting a transitive reductive group G of automorphisms. In particular, we show that the center of G is…

We construct a compact formal 7-manifold with a closed $G_2$-structure and with first Betti number $b_1=1$, which does not admit any torsion-free $G_2$-structure, that is, it does not admit any $G_2$-structure such that the holonomy group…

We consider two different $\text{SU}(2)^2$-invariant cohomogeneity one manifolds, one non-compact $M=\mathbb{R}^4 \times S^3$ and one compact $M=S^4 \times S^3$, and study the existence of coclosed $\text{SU}(2)^2$-invariant…

A hypersymplectic structure on a 4-manifold $X$ is a triple $\underline{\omega}$ of symplectic forms which at every point span a maximal positive-definite subspace of $\Lambda^2$ for the wedge product. This article is motivated by a…

In this note, we construct new solutions to the heterotic $\mathrm{G}_2$-system with non-abelian gauge group, both compact and non-compact, on certain $2$-step nilmanifolds and $3$-Sasakian manifolds. Our approach is based on an ansatz that…

Given a $G$-toric, folded-symplectic manifold with co-orientable folding hypersurface, we show that its orbit space is naturally a manifold with corners $W$ equipped with a smooth map $\psi: W \to \frak{g}^*$, where $\frak{g}^*$ is the dual…

Computations based on explicit 4-periodic resolutions are given for the cohomology of the finite groups G known to act freely on S^3, as well as the cohomology rings of the associated 3-manifolds (spherical space forms) M = S^3/G. Chain…
