Abstract

We study the chiral de Rham complex (CDR) over a manifold MM with holonomy G2\rm G_2. We prove that the vertex algebra of global sections of the CDR associated to MM contains two commuting copies of the Shatashvili-Vafa G2\rm G_2 superconformal algebra. Our proof is a tour de force, based on explicit computations.
