Title:
Survey of Geometry in G_2 manifolds

Speaker:
Simon Donaldson

Abstract:
We will discuss geometric objects in and over manifolds with special structures in dimensions 6,7,8. The main focus will be on 7-dimensional manifolds, with exceptional holonomy G_2. The geometric objects in question are calibrated sub manifolds and "instanton" solutions of the Yang-Mills equations.
