Abstract

We establish some fundamental relations between Dirac subbundles LL for the generalized Courant algebroid (AA,ϕ+W)(A\oplus A^{\ast}, \phi+W) over a differentiable manifold MM and the associated Dirac subbubndles L~\tilde{L} for the corresponding Courant algebroid A~A~\tilde{A} \oplus \tilde{A}^{\ast} over M×RM\times \R.
