Deformations of <i>G</i><sub>2</sub> and Spin(7) Structures
Abstract We consider some deformations of G 2 -structures on 7-manifolds. We discover a canonical way to deform a G 2 -structure by a vector field in which the associated metric gets “twisted” in some way by the vector cross product. We present a system of partial differential equations for …
