Higgs bundles for N=1 gauge theories

<p>We consider two constructions of 4d N = 1 gauge theories in M-theory. The first is purely geometric and involves compactifying M-theory on singular manifolds of G2-holonomy. The geometries studied are ALE-fibered over a compact base M3. This fibration admits a description in terms of a Higg...
