Abstract

Courant algebroid relations are used to define notions of relations between Dirac structures and spinors. It is shown under which circumstances a spinor relation gives a Courant algebroid relation and how it descends to a relation between Dirac structures. A converse to this result is proved: a T-duality relation induces a spinor relation that links the Dirac generating operators defining T-dual Courant algebroids, generalising the isomorphism of twisted cohomology associated with topological T-duality. We introduce the notion of relation between generalised complex structures and characterise their reduction. We also define relations between generalised K\"ahler structures, and rephrase them in terms of bi-Hermitian structures which induce T-duality relations between N=(2,2)\mathcal{N}=(2,2) supersymmetric sigma-models. We prove existence results for T-dual structures, and demonstrate compatibility of T-duality relations with Type II supergravity equations.
