TITLE: Mirror Symmetry for G₂ manifolds

ABSTRACT: String theories on different $G_2$ manifolds can lead to the same physics in a phenomenon called mirror symmetry. In this talk, I will review mirror symmetry for $G_2$ manifolds, focusing on recent progress. In particular, I will present constructions of mirror $G_2$ manifolds realized as twisted connected sums.
