Abstract

We review a method to construct G2\rm{G}_2--instantons over compact G2\rm{G}_2--manifolds arising as the twisted connected sum of a matching pair of Calabi-Yau 33-folds with cylindrical end, based on the series of articles [SE15, SEW15, JMPSE17, MNSE17] by the author and others. The construction is based on gluing G2\rm{G}_2--instantons obtained from holomorphic bundles over such building blocks, subject to natural compatibility and transversality conditions. Explicit examples are obtained from matching pairs of semi-Fano 33-folds by an algorithmic procedure based on the Hartshorne-Serre correspondence.
