We characterize precisely when there is a \"classical\" T-dual, i.e., a dual bundle with dual H-flux, and when the T-dual must be \"non-classical,\" that is, a continuous field of noncommutative tori. The duality comes with an isomorphism of twisted $K$-theories, required for matching of D-brane charges, just as in the classical case. The isomorphism of twisted cohomology which one gets in the classical case is replaced in the non-classical case by an isomorphism of twisted cyclic homology. An important part of the paper contains a detailed analysis of the classifying space for topological T-duality, as well as the T-duality group and its action. The issue of possible non-uniqueness of T-duals can be studied via the action of the T-duality group.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2006-02-02T00:59:51.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "t-duality group", "noncommutative topology", "high-dimensional case", "principal torus bundles", "classical case" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.4310/ATMP.2006.v10.n1.a5" }, "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 36, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 689667, "adsabs": "2005hep.th....8084M" } } }
