We initiate the systematic study of $G_2$-instantons with $SU(2)^2$-symmetry. As well as developing foundational theory, we give existence, non-existence and classification results for these instantons. We particularly focus on…

We construct SU(2)^2xU(1)-invariant G_2-instantons on the asymptotically conical limit of the C7 family of G_2-metrics. The construction uses a dynamical systems approach involving perturbations of an abelian solution and a solution on the…

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…

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…

Using co-homogeneity one symmetries, we construct a two-parameter family of non-abelian $G_2$-instantons on every member of the asymptotically locally conical $\mathbb{B}_7$-family of $G_2$-metrics on $S^3 \times \mathbb{R}^4 $, and…

We prove the existence of a one-parameter family of nearly parallel $G_2$-structures on the manifold $S^3\times \mathbb R^4$, which are mutually non isomorphic and invariant under the cohomogeneity one action of the group $SU(2)^3$. This…

We survey the known existence and non-existence results for $G_2$-instantons on non-compact cohomogeneity-1 $G_2$-manifolds and their consequences, including an explicit example of a family of $G_2$-instantons where bubbling, removable…

We consider a two parameter family of instantons, which is studied in [Sadun L., Comm. Math. Phys. 163 (1994), 257-291], invariant under the irreducible action of ${\rm SU}_2$ on $S^4$, but which are not globally defined. We will see that…

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…

We construct explicit examples of deformed $G_2$-instantons, also called Donaldson-Thomas connections, on $\mathbb{R}^4 \times S^3$ endowed with the torsion free $G_2$-structure found by Brandhuber et al. and on $\mathbb{R}^+\times S^3…

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…

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 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 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…

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 introduce a method to construct $G_2$-instantons over compact $G_2$-manifolds arising as the twisted connected sum of a matching pair of building blocks [Kov03,KL11,CHNP12]. Our construction is based on gluing $G_2$-instantons obtained…

We present a classification of SU(2) instantons on $T^2\times\mathbb{R}^2$ according to their asymptotic behaviour. We then study the existence of such instantons for different values of the asymptotic parameters, describing explicitly the…

We study the deformation theory of $\mathrm{G}_2$-instantons on the 7-sphere, specifically those obtained from instantons on the 4-sphere via the quaternionic Hopf fibration. We find that the pullback of the standard ASD instanton lies in a…

Adjusting conventional Chern-Simons theory to ${\rm G}_2$-manifolds, one describes ${\rm G}_2$-instantons on bundles over a certain class of $7$-dimensional flat tori which fiber non-trivially over $T^4$, by a pullback argument. Moreover,…

Anti-self-dual (ASD) solutions to the Yang-Mills equation (or instantons) over an anti-self-dual four manifold, which are invariant under an appropriate action of a three dimensional Lie group, give rise, via twistor construction, to…
