Abstract: The $7$-dimensional link $K$ of a weighted homogeneous hypersurface on the round $9$-sphere in $mathbb{C}^5$ has a nontrivial null Sasakian structure which is contact Calabi-Yau, in many cases. It admits a canonical co-closed $m{G}_2$-structure $varphi$ induced by the Calabi-Yau $3$-orbifold basic geometry. We distinguish these pairs $(K,varphi)$ by the Crowley-Nordstr"om $mathbb{Z}_{48}$-valued $u$ invariant, for which we prove odd parity and provide an algorithmic formula. We describe moreover a natural Yang-Mills theory on such spaces, with many important features of the torsion-free case, such as a Chern-Simons formalism and topological energy bounds. In fact compatible $m{G}_2$-instantons on holomorphic Sasakian bundles over $K$ are exactly the transversely Hermitian Yang-Mills connections. As a proof of principle, we obtain $m{G}_2$-instantons over the Fermat quintic link from stable bundles over the smooth projective Fermat quintic, thus relating in a concrete example the Donaldson-Thomas theory of the quintic threefold with a conjectural $m{G}_2$-instanton count.
