A new construction of compact 8-manifolds with holonomy Spin(7)
The exceptional holonomy groups are G2 in 7 dimensions, and Spin(7) in 8 dimensions. In a previous paper (Invent. math. 123 (1996), 507-552) the author constructed the first examples of compact 8-manifolds with holonomy Spin(7), by resolving orbifolds T^8/G, where T^8 is the 8-torus and G a finite g...
