Finite Invariance of Cayley Calibration Form

In the further development of the string theory, one needs to understand 3 or 4-dimensional volume minimizing subvarieties in 7 or 8-dimensional manifolds. As one example, one would like to understand 4-dimensional volume minimizing cycles in a torus T8. The Cayley calibration form can be used to fi...
