Özet
It is known that 7-dimensional 3-Sasakian manifolds admit nearly parallel G(2) structures [6, 1]. In this paper, we consider three of these nearly parallel G(2) structures on a 7-dimensional 3-Sasakian manifold given in [1]. We deform the fundamental 3-forms of the manifold by three characteristic vector fields of the Sasakian structure separately. Then we determine how classes of G(2) structures change.
