Closed $\mathrm{G}_2$-eigenforms and exact $\mathrm{G}_2$-structures

A study is made of left-invariant $\mathrm{G}_2$-structures with an exact 3-form on a Lie group $G$ whose Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ admits a codimension-one nilpotent ideal $\mathfrak{h}$. It is shown that such a Lie group $G$ cannot admit a left-invariant closed $\mathrm{G}_2$-eigenform for the Laplacian and that any compact solvmanifold $Γ\backslash G$ arising from $G$ does not admit an (invariant) exact $\mathrm{G}_2$-structure. We also classify the seven-dimensional Lie algebras $\mathfrak{g}$ with codimension-one ideal equal to the complex Heisenberg Lie algebra which admit exact $\mathrm{G}_2$-structures with or without special torsion. To achieve these goals, we first determine the six-dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras $\mathfrak{h}$ admitting an exact $\mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb{C})$-structure $ρ$ or a half-flat $\mathrm{SU}(3)$-structure $(ω,ρ)$ with exact $ρ$, respectively.
