M-theory and G_2 Manifolds

arXiv:1507.01619 · doi:10.1088/0031-8949/90/11/118004

Abstract

In this talk we report on recent progress in describing compactifications of string theory and M-theory on G_2 and Spin(7) manifolds. We include the infinite set of alpha'-corrections and describe the entire tower of massless and massive Kaluza-Klein modes resulting from such compactifications.
