Towards a Topological $$ \mathcal{G}_2$$ String
We define new topological theories related to sigma models whose target space is a 7 dimensional manifold of G 2 holonomy. We show how to define the topological twist and identify the BRST operator and the physical states. Correlation functions at genus zero are computed and related to Hitchin’s topological …
