Asymptotically cylindrical manifolds with holonomy Spin(7). I (1309.5027v2)

Published 19 Sep 2013 in math.DG

Abstract: We construct examples of asymptotically cylindrical Riemannian 8-manifolds with holonomy group Spin(7). To our knowledge, these are the first such examples. The construction uses an extension to asymptotically cylindrical setting of Joyce's existence result for torsion-free Spin(7)-structures. One source of examples arises from `Fano-type' Kaehler 4-orbifolds with smooth anticanonical Calabi-Yau 3-fold divisors and with compatible antiholomorphic involution. We give examples using weighted projective spaces and calculate basic topological invariants of the resulting Spin(7)-manifolds.
