We present a theory of reduction for Courant algebroids as well as Dirac structures, generalized complex, and generalized K\"ahler structures which interpolates between holomorphic reduction of complex manifolds and symplectic reduction.…
We propose a new unified formulation of the current algebra theory in general dimensions in terms of supergeometry. We take a QP-manifold, i.e. a differential graded (dg) symplectic manifold, as a fundamental framework. A Poisson bracket in…
The first part of these notes is a self-contained introduction to generalized complex geometry. It is intended as a `user manual' for tools used in the study of supersymmetric backgrounds of supergravity. In the second part we review some…
Exploiting the affinity between stable generalized complex structures and symplectic structures, we explain how certain constructions coming from symplectic geometry can be performed in the generalized complex setting. We introduce…
We study the conditions under which N=(1,1) generalized sigma models support an extension to N=(2,2). The enhanced supersymmetry is related to the target space complex geometry. Concentrating on a simple situation, related to Poisson sigma…
We study higher-degree generalizations of symplectic groupoids, referred to as {\em multisymplectic groupoids}. Recalling that Poisson structures may be viewed as infinitesimal counterparts of symplectic groupoids, we describe "higher''…
We introduce Hopf algebroid covariance on Woronowicz's differential calculus. Using it, we develop quite a general framework of noncommutative complex geometry that subsumes the one in [2]. We present transverse complex and K\"ahler…
The Riemann normal coordinate expansion method is generalized to a Kahler manifold. The Kahler potential and holomorphic coordinate transformations are used to define a normal coordinate preserving the complex structure. The existence of…
We survey the concept of multiplicativity from its initial appearance in the theory of Poisson-Lie groups to the far-reaching generalizations, for multivectors and differential forms in the geometry and the generalized geometry of Lie…
We give a new characterization of generalized K\"ahler structures in terms of their corresponding complex Dirac structures. We then give an alternative proof of Hitchin's partial unobstructedness for holomorphic Poisson structures. Our main…
We show that our earlier work in \cite{LT05} extends to the twisted case, that is, we defined a notion of moment map and reduction in both twisted generalized complex geometry and twisted generalized K\"ahler geometry.
We extend profound results in pluripotential theory on Kahler manifolds to Sasaki setting via its transverse Kahler structure. As in Kahler case, these results form a very important piece to solve the existence of Sasaki metrics with…
We explain how to translate several recent results in derived algebraic geometry to derived differential geometry. These concern shifted Poisson structures on NQ-manifolds, Lie groupoids, smooth stacks and derived generalisations, and…
Generalized geometry provides the framework for a systematic approach to non-symmetric metric gravity theory and naturally leads to an Einstein-Kalb-Ramond gravity theory with totally anti-symmetric contortion. The approach is related to…
We introduce the notion of G-algebroid, generalising both Lie and Courant algebroids, as well as the algebroids used in $E_{n(n)}\times\mathbb{R}^+$ exceptional generalised geometry for $n\in\{3,\dots,6\}$. Focusing on the exceptional case,…
The recently established metric reduction in generalized geometry is encoded in 0-dimensional supersymmetric $\sigma$-models. This is an example of balanced topological field theories. To find the geometric content of such models, the…
This is a survey article, to appear in the Proceedings of the 2018 International Congress of Mathematicians. (Revised, with added and updated references.)
A generalized complex manifold is locally gauge-equivalent to the product of a holomorphic Poisson manifold with a real symplectic manifold, but in possibly many different ways. In this paper we show that the isomorphism class of the…
This is a survey article, based on the author's lectures in the 2015 Current developments in Mathematics meeting; published in "Current developments in Mathematics". Version 2, references corrected and added.
We introduce the notion of twisted generalized complex submanifolds and describe an equivalent characterization in terms of Poisson-Dirac submanifolds. Our characterization recovers a result of Vaisman. An equivalent characterization is…
