Invariant torsion and G2-metrics

We introduce and study a notion of invariant intrinsic torsion geometrywhich appears, for instance, in connection with the Bryant-Salamon metric on the spinor bundle over S3. This space is foliated by sixdimensional hypersurfaces, each of which carries a particular type of SO(3)-structure; the intri...
