Generalized complex geometry

M Gualtieri - Annals of mathematics, 2011 - JSTOR
Generalized complex geometry encompasses complex and symplectic geometry as its
extremal special cases. We explore the basic properties of this geometry, including its …

Doubled geometry and T-folds

CM Hull - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2007 - iopscience.iop.org
The doubled formulation of string theory, which is T-duality covariant and enlarges
spacetime with extra coordinates conjugate to winding number, is reformulated and its …

Generalized complex geometry and T-duality

GR Cavalcanti, M Gualtieri - arXiv preprint arXiv:1106.1747, 2011 - arxiv.org
We describe how generalized complex geometry, which interpolates between complex and
symplectic geometry, is compatible with T-duality, a relation between quantum field theories …

Global aspects of T-duality, gauged sigma models and T-folds

CM Hull - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2007 - iopscience.iop.org
The gauged sigma-model argument that string backgrounds related by T-duality give
equivalent quantum theories is revisited, taking careful account of global considerations …

Courant algebroids, Poisson–Lie T-duality, and type II supergravities

P Ševera, F Valach - Communications in Mathematical Physics, 2020 - Springer
We reexamine the notions of generalized Ricci tensor and scalar curvature on a general
Courant algebroid, reformulate them using objects natural wrt pull-backs and reductions …
