review text: Coassociative submanifolds are 4-dimensional calibrated submanifolds in \(G_2\)-manifolds. \textit{A. Strominger} et al. [Nucl. Phys., B 479, No. 1--2, 243--259 (1996; Zbl 0896.14024)] presented a conjecture explaining mirror symmetry of compact Calabi-Yau 3-folds in terms of dual fibrations by special Lagrangian 3-tori, including singular fibers. \textit{R. L. Bryant} and \textit{S. M. Salamon} [Duke Math. J. 58, No. 3, 829--850 (1989; Zbl 0681.53021)] constructed complete \(G_2\)-metrics on \(\Lambda^2_-S^4\). In the paper under review, the author constructs explicit examples of coassociative submanifolds in \(\Lambda^2_-S^4\). It is shown that the only homogeneous coassociative submanifold is the zero section of \(\Lambda^2_-S^4\) up to the automorphisms and construct many cohomogeneity one examples explicitly. Examples of non-compact coassociative submanifolds with conical singularities and their desingularizations are obtained.
