New directions in G2 geometry

March 31 to April 4, 2025

at the

American Institute of Mathematics, Pasadena, California

organized by

Jason Lotay and Tommaso Pacini

Original Announcement

This workshop will be devoted to investigating new research directions within $G_2$ geometry. Certain topics have by now been intensely studied: the construction of new holonomy $G_2$ manifolds, submanifold geometry, gauge theory, geometric invariants and geometric flows. Across the years, however, many other promising directions have been suggested but await deeper investigation.

The main topics for this workshop are:

  1. New developments in $G_2$ mirror symmetry.
  2. Topological methods and formality in $G_2$ geometry.
  3. Loop spaces and non-associative gauge theory.
  4. $G_2$ function theory and $G_2$ mappings.
