On Mirror Maps for Manifolds of Exceptional Holonomy (2019)
Journal Article
Braun, A. P., Majumder, S., & Otto, A. (2019). On Mirror Maps for Manifolds of Exceptional Holonomy. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019(10), Article 204. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep10%282019%29204

We study mirror symmetry of type II strings on manifolds with the exceptional holonomy groups G2 and Spin(7). Our central result is a construction of mirrors of Spin(7) manifolds realized as generalized connected sums. In parallel to twisted connecte...

Higgs bundles for M-theory on G2-manifolds (2019)
Journal Article
Braun, A. P., Cizel, S., Hübner, M., & Schäfer-Nameki, S. (2019). Higgs bundles for M-theory on G2-manifolds. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019(3), Article 199. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep03%282019%29199

M-theory compactified on G2-holonomy manifolds results in 4d N = 1 supersymmetric gauge theories coupled to gravity. In this paper we focus on the gauge sector of such compactifications by studying the Higgs bundle obtained from a partially twisted 7... Read More about Higgs bundles for M-theory on G2-manifolds.

Counting associatives in compact $G_2$ orbifolds (2019)
Journal Article
Acharya, B. S., Braun, A. P., Svanes, E. E., & Valandro, R. (2019). Counting associatives in compact $G_2$ orbifolds. Journal of High Energy Physics, 03, Article 138. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep03%282019%29138

We describe a class of compact G2 orbifolds constructed from non-symplectic involutions of K3 surfaces. Within this class, we identify a model for which there are infinitely many associative submanifolds contributing to the effective superpotential o...
