    stub for T-fold

    added a pointer to Thomas Nikolaus’ talk as of yesterday to T-fold.

    (I wish there were more to link to at the moment, but at least the broad statement should be recorded for the time being.)

    so for completeness I gave T-duality 2-group its own entry

    Finally Thomas Nikolaus and Konrad Waldorf have written up their formalization of Chris Hull’s idea of T-folds, in terms of the higher differential geometry of principal 2-bundles for the T-duality 2-group. I have added a pointer as Nikolaus-Waldorf 18.

    slightly expanded and re-organized the Idea-text. (But it remains a stub.)

    I have given the references on the higher geometric formulation its own subsection (here) and then I have added these:


    The automorphism 2-group of the T-duality 2-group (and hence potentially the full structure of T-folds) is determined in:

    Introduction and review:

    Proposals for further generalization (2-connections and further non-geometric backgrounds):
