Deformation theory of nearly G₂-structures and nearly G₂ instantons
(University of Waterloo, 2021-08-30)We study two different deformation theory problems on manifolds with a nearly G₂-structure. The first involves studying the deformation theory of nearly G₂ manifolds. These are seven dimensional manifolds admitting real ... -
Differential Operators on Manifolds with G2-Structure
(University of Waterloo, 2020-12-16)In this thesis, we study differential operators on manifolds with torsion-free G2-structure. In particular, we use an identification of the spinor bundle S of such a manifold M with the bundle R ⊕ T*M to reframe statements ...
