We describe dual notions of tangent bundle for an infinity-topos, each underlying a tangent infinity-category in the sense of Bauer, Burke and the author. One of those notions is Lurie's tangent bundle functor for presentable…

A duality theory of bundles of C$^*$-algebras whose fibres are twisted transformation group algebras is established. Classical T-duality is obtained as a special case, where all fibres are commutative tori, i.e. untwisted group algebras for…

We discuss some aspects of heterotic-Type I duality. We focus on toroidal compactification, with special attention for the topology of the gauge group, and the topology of the bundle. We review the arguments leading to a classification of…

Recently we initiated the study of spherical T-duality for spacetimes that are principal SU(2)-bundles. In this paper, we extend spherical T-duality to spacetimes that are oriented non-principal SU(2)-bundles. There are several interesting…

Let $R$ be a general ring. Duality pairs of $R$-modules were introduced by Holm-Jorgensen. Most examples satisfy further properties making them what we call semi-complete duality pairs in this paper. We attach a relative theory of…

We solve the problem on flat extensions of a generic surface with boundary in Euclidean 3-space, relating it to the singularity theory of the envelope generated by the boundary. We give related results on Legendre surfaces with boundaries…

This article develops a duality principle for non-linear elasticity. The results are obtained through standard tools of convex analysis and the Legendre transform concept. We emphasize the dual variational formulation is concave. Moreover,…

We introduce a notion of Poincar\'e duality for pairs of $\infty$-categories, extending Poincar\'e-Lefschetz duality for pairs of spaces. This categorical extension yields an efficient book-keeping device that affords, among other things, a…

We develop a framework for a duality theory for general multilinear operators which extends that for transversal multilinear operators which has been established in arXiv:1809.02449. We apply it to the setting of joints and multijoints, and…

In this paper, we study the family index of a family of spin manifolds. In particular, we discuss to which extend the real index (of the Dirac operator of the real spinor bundle if the fiber dimension is divisible by 8) which can be defined…

Recently Seiberg has conjectured a duality symmetry connecting different theories of the supersymmetric QCD type. We provide support for this conjecture by analyzing a flat direction of the theory along which the two dual theories go over…

In this paper we continue the study (initiated in a previous article) of linear Koszul duality, a geometric version of the standard duality between modules over symmetric and exterior algebras. We construct this duality in a very general…

Topological Spherical T-duality was introduced by Bouwknegt, Evslin and Mathai in [BEM15] as an extension of topological T-duality from $S^1$-bundles to $\mathrm{SU}(2)$-bundles endowed with closed 7-forms. This notion was further extended…
