AbstractWe consider the connected-sum method of constructing compact Riemannian 7-manifolds with holonomy G2 developed by the first named author. The method requires pairs of projective complex threefolds endowed with anticanonical K3 divisors and the latter K3 surfaces should satisfy a certain ‘matching condition’ intertwining on their periods and Kähler classes. Suitable examples of threefolds were previously obtained by blowing up curves in Fano threefolds.In this paper, we give a large new class of suitable algebraic threefolds using theory of K3 surfaces with non-symplectic involution due to Nikulin. These threefolds are not obtainable from Fano threefolds as above, and admit matching pairs leading to topologically new examples of compact irreducible G2-manifolds. ‘Geography’ of the values of Betti numbers b2, b3 for the new (and previously known) examples of irreducible G2 manifolds is also discussed.
