Fields Institute, Room 230
Abstract:
In this talk we present some general results about G2-structures whose underlying Riemannian metric is Einstein, as well results on the existence of left invariant closed G2 forms determining a Ricci soliton metric on nilpotent Lie groups. For closed G2-structures, we will also show some results related to the Laplacian flow.
