摘要
This talk introduces a Cartan-geometric framework for generalised geometries governed by a differential graded Lie algebra. In contrast to ordinary Cartan geometry, the tangent bundle is extended and qu both a global duality group and a local gauge group. This framework provides a systematic construction of generalised connections and their torsion and curvature tensors for generic generalised geometries. We also review the realisation of these algebraic structures on the phase space of branes in M-theory.
