Deformations of $G_2$-structures with torsion

Deformations of $G_2$-structures with torsion

We consider non-infinitesimal deformations of G2-structures on 7-dimensional manifolds and derive an exact expression for the torsion of the deformed G2-structure. We then specialize to a case when the deformation is defined by a vector v and we explicitly derive the expressions for the different torsion components of the new …
