Dans cette note, nous fournissons les premiers exemples non triviaux de G 2 -instantons déformés, initialement appelés connexions Donaldson–Thomas déformées. En conséquence, on peut utiliser G 2 -instantons déformés pour faire la distinction entre des G 2 -structures presque parallèles et des G 2 -structures isométriques sur des 7-variétés 3-Sasakiennes. Nos exemples donnent des G 2 -instantons déformés non triviaux avec une théorie de la déformation obstruée et des situations où l’espace des modules des G 2 -instantons déformés a des composantes de dimensions différentes. Nous étudions enfin la relation entre nos exemples et une fonctionnelle de type Chern–Simons qui a les G 2 -instantons déformés en points critiques.

In this note, we provide the first non-trivial examples of deformed G 2 -instantons, originally called deformed Donaldson–Thomas connections. As a consequence, we see how deformed G 2 -instantons can be used to distinguish between nearly parallel G 2 -structures and isometric G 2 -structures on 3-Sasakian 7-manifolds. Our examples give non-trivial deformed G 2 -instantons with obstructed deformation theory and situations where the moduli space of deformed G 2 -instantons has components of different dimensions. We finally study the relation between our examples and a Chern–Simons type functional which has deformed G 2 -instantons as critical points.
