AB - We continue the analysis of the geometry of generic Minkowski N = 1, D = 4flux compactifications in M-theory using exceptional generalised geometry, including thecalculation of the infinitesimal moduli spaces. The backgrounds can be classified into twoclasses: type-0 and type-3. For type-0, we review how the moduli arise from standard deRham cohomology classes. We also argue that, under reasonable assumptions, there areno appropriate sources to support compact flux backgrounds for this class and so the onlysolutions are in fact G2 geometries. For type-3 backgrounds, given a suitable ∂0∂¯0-lemma,we show that the moduli can be calculated from a cohomology based on an involutive subbundle of the complexified tangent space. Using a simple spectral sequence we prove quitegenerally that the presence of flux can only reduce the number of moduli compared withthe fluxless case. We then use the formalism to calculate the moduli of heterotic M-theoryand show they match those of the dual Hull-Strominger system as expected.
