New Inhomogeneous Nearly G2-metric on the Berger Space and a Sine Cone Desingularisation

Abstract

Nearly G2 manifolds are positive Einstein seven-dimensional manifolds whose associated cone metric has special holonomy equal to, or contained in, Spin(7). We study nearly parallel G2-structures invariant under a cohomogeneity-one action of SO(4), and construct the first inhomogeneous nearly parallel G2-structure on the Berger space SO(5)/SO(3). The cone over this metric has full holonomy Spin(7). The existence of the solution is established by a rigorous computer-assisted shooting argument. We also establish a local desingularisation of a finite quotient of the sine cone over S3× S3 by gluing in the asymptotically conical C7 bubble constructed by Foscolo--Haskins--Nordström. We show that as the singular orbit of a family of nearly parallel G2 manifolds collapses, away from the singular orbit the desingularising family converges to the sine cone quotient, while the natural blow-up converges to the AC torsion-free G2-metric of C7.

AB  - Nearly G_2 manifolds are positive Einstein seven-dimensional manifolds whose associated cone metric has special holonomy equal to, or contained in, Spin(7). We study nearly parallel G_2-structures invariant under a cohomogeneity-one action of SO(4), and construct the first inhomogeneous nearly parallel G_2-structure on the Berger space SO(5)/SO(3). The cone over this metric has full holonomy Spin(7). The existence of the solution is established by a rigorous computer-assisted shooting argument. We also establish a local desingularisation of a finite quotient of the sine cone over S^3× S^3 by gluing in the asymptotically conical C_7 bubble constructed by Foscolo--Haskins--Nordström. We show that as the singular orbit of a family of nearly parallel G_2 manifolds collapses, away from the singular orbit the desingularising family converges to the sine cone quotient, while the natural blow-up converges to the AC torsion-free G_2-metric of C_7.
