Generalized geometry and non-symmetric gravity — Branislav Jurco¹, •Fech Scen Khoo², Peter Schupp³, and Jan Vysoky⁴ — ¹Mathematical Institute, Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University, Prague, 186 75, Czech Republic. — ²Department of Physics and Earth Sciences, Jacobs University, Bremen, 28759, Germany. — ³Department of Physics and Earth Sciences, Jacobs University, Bremen, 28759, Germany. — ⁴Mathematical Sciences Institute, Australian National University, Canberra, ACT, Australia.

Generalized geometry provides the framework for a systematic approach to non-symmetric metric gravity theory and naturally leads to an Einstein-Kalb-Ramond gravity theory with totally anti-symmetric contortion. The approach is related to the study of the effective closed string gravity actions.
