On the automorphism group of a closed G$_2$-structure

Fabio Podestà, Alberto Raffero

Published 2018-01-20Version 1

We study the automorphism group of a compact 7-manifold $M$ endowed with a closed non-parallel G$_2$-structure, showing that its identity component is abelian with dimension bounded by min$\{6,b_2(M)\}$. This implies the non-existence of compact homogeneous manifolds endowed with an invariant closed non-parallel G$_2$-structure. We also discuss some relevant examples.
