Explore T-duality from a mathematician's perspective in this 49-minute lecture by Gil Cavalcanti from Universiteit Utrecht. Gain insights into the history, successes, and ongoing challenges of T-duality. Discover how a new differential geometric approach to log-geometry offers fresh perspectives on performing T-duality with fixed points for torus action, eliminating the need for non-compact spaces or ad-hoc potentials. Learn about the collaborative research conducted with Aldo Witte, providing a comprehensive overview of this complex topic in mathematical physics.
