Example Abstract/Summary:
Only four examples of complete non-compact $G_2$ manifolds are currently known. In joint work with Mark Haskins and Johannes Nordstrom we construct infinitely many families of new complete non-compact $G_2$ holonomy manifolds. The underlying smooth 7-manifolds are all circle bundles over asymptotically conical (AC) Calabi-Yau manifolds of complex dimension 3. The $G_2$ holonomy metrics we construct should be thought of as arising from abelian Hermitian-Yang-Mills connections on AC Calabi-Yau 3-folds, especially AC Calabi-Yau metrics on crepant resolutions of Calabi-Yau cones. *This question is required.
