Given a Dirac subbundle and an isotropic subbundle of a Courant algebroid, we provide a canonical method to obtain a new Dirac subbundle. When the original Dirac subbundle is involutive (i.e., a Dirac structure) this construction has interesting applications, for instance to Dirac's theory of constraints and to the Marsden-Ratiu reduction in Poisson geometry.

  1. Generalised Complex and Spinor Relations

    hep-th 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Courant algebroid relations define spinor and Dirac structure relations, with T-duality inducing spinor relations that generalize twisted cohomology isomorphisms and are compatible with Type II supergravity equations.
