Abstract: We study locally conformal calibrated G2-structures whose underlying Riemannian metric is Einstein, showing that in the compact case the scalar curvature cannot be positive. As a consequence, a compact homogeneous 7-manifold cannot admit an invariant Einstein locally conformal calibrated G2-structure unless the underlying metric is flat. In contrast to the compact case, we provide a non-compact example of homogeneous manifold endowed with a locally conformal calibrated G2-structure whose associated Riemannian metric is Einstein and non Ricci-flat. The homogeneous Einstein metric is a rank-one extension of a Ricci soliton on the 3-dimensional complex Heisenberg group endowed with a left-invariant coupled mSU(3)-structure (omega,Psi), i.e., such that domega=cmRe(Psi), with cinmathbbR0. Nilpotent Lie algebras admitting a coupled mSU(3)-structure are also classified.
