Abstract: A duality theory of bundles of C∗-algebras whose fibres are twisted transformation group algebras is established. Classical T-duality is obtained as a special case, where all fibres are commutative tori, i.e. untwisted group algebras for . Our theory also includes the bundles considered by Mathai and Rosenberg in their work on non-commutative T-duals, in which they allow twisted group algebras on one side of the duality.


\(T\)-duality is an important tool of string theory. The authors extend \(T\)-duality to bundles of \(C^*\)-algebras, i.e., to non-commutative bundles. The following important cases are studied: (1) stable non-commutative tori, (2) non-commutative \(C^*\)-dynamical \(T\)-duality and (3) the Heisenberg bundle and its relatives. The paper is well motivated and clearly written.
