In this paper we study ${rm Spin}(7)$-instantons on asymptotically conical ${rm Spin}(7)$-orbifolds (and manifolds) obtained by filling in certain squashed $3$-Sasakian $7$-manifolds. We construct a $1$-parameter family of explicit ${rm Spin}(7)$-instantons. Taking the parameter to infinity, the family (a) bubbles off an ASD connection in directions transverse to a certain Cayley submanifold $Z$, (b) away from $Z$ smoothly converges to a limit ${rm Spin}(7)$-instanton that extends across $Z$ onto a topologically distinct bundle, (c) satisfies an energy conservation law for the instantons and the bubbles concentrated on $Z$, and (d) determines a Fueter section, in the sense of Donaldson and Segal, Haydys and Walpuski.
We study a natural contact instanton (CI) equation on gauge fields over 7-dimensional Sasakian manifolds, which is closely related both to the transverse Hermitian Yang-Mills (tHYM) condition and the G_2-instanton equation. We obtain, by Fredholm the
The main result is a computation of the Nahm transform of a SU(2)-instanton over RxT^3, called spatially-periodic instanton. It is a singular monopole over T^3, a solution to the Bogomolny equation, whose rank is computed and behavior at the singular points is described.
We obtain non-trivial solutions to the heterotic $rm{G}_2$ system, which are defined on the total spaces of non-trivial circle bundles over Calabi--Yau $3$-orbifolds. By adjusting the $S^1$ fibres in proportion to a power of the string constant $alph
We formulate and study the isometric flow of $mathrm{Spin}(7)$-structures on compact $8$-manifolds, as an instance of the harmonic flow of geometric structures. Starting from a general perspective, we establish Shi-type estimates and a correspondence
We apply the method of linear perturbations to the case of Spin(7)-structures, showing that the only nontrivial perturbations are those determined by a rank one nilpotent matrix. We consider linear perturbations of the Bryant-Salamon metric on the
