    Classification of compact homogeneous spaces with invariant G\(_2\)-structures (English)

    Let \(G\) be a connected compact Lie group. The authors classify all \(7\)-dimensional homogeneous spaces \(M = G/H\) (not necessary simply connected) which admit an invariant \(G_2\)-structure, where \(G_2\) is the exceptional compact or non compact simple Lie group. They determine for each homogeneous space the dimension of the space of invariant \(G_2\)-structures, which is equal to the dimension of the space of isotropy invariant 3-forms in the tangent space \(T_x(G/H)\). New families of invariant coclosed \(G_2\)-structures are constructed.
