The metric-affine and generalized geometries, respectively, are arguably the appropriate mathematical frameworks for Einsteins theory of gravity and the low-energy effective massless oriented closed bosonic string field theory. In fact, mathematical structures in a metric-affine geometry are written on the tangent bundle, which is itself a Lie algebroid; whereas those in generalized geometries introduced as the basis of double field theories, are written on Courant algebroids. The Lie, Courant and the higher Courant algebroids used in exceptional field theories, are all special cases of pre-Leibniz algebroids. Provided with some additional ingredients, the construction of such geometries can all be carried over to regular pre-Leibniz algebroids. We define below the notions of locality structures and locality projectors, which are some such necessary ingredients. In terms of these structures, $E$-metric-connection geometries are constructed with (possibly) a minimum number of assumptions. Certain small gaps in the literature are also filled as we go along. $E$-Koszul connections, as a generalization of Levi-Civita connections, are going to be defined and shown to be helpful for some results including a simple generalization of the fundamental theorem of Riemannian geometry. We also show that metric-affine geometries can be constructed in a unique way as special cases of $E$-metric-connection geometries. Moreover, generalized geometries are shown to follow as special cases, and various properties of linear generalized-connections are proven in the present framework. Similarly, uniqueness of the locality projector in the case of exact Courant algebroids is proven; a result that explains why the curvature operator, defined with a projector in the double field theory literature is a necessity.

We introduce the category of holomorphic string algebroids, whose objects are Courant extensions of Atiyah Lie algebroids of holomorphic principal bundles, as considered by Bressler, and whose morphisms correspond to inner morphisms of the underlying
holomorphic Courant algebroids in the sense of Severa. This category provides natural candidates for Atiyah Lie algebroids of holomorphic principal bundles for the (complexified) string group and their morphisms. Our main results are a classification of string algebroids in terms of Cech cohomology, and the construction of a locally complete family of deformations of string algebroids via a differential graded Lie algebra.
The seven and nine dimensional geometries associated with certain classes of supersymmetric $AdS_3$ and $AdS_2$ solutions of type IIB and D=11 supergravity, respectively, have many similarities with Sasaki-Einstein geometry. We further elucidate thei
r properties and also generalise them to higher odd dimensions by introducing a new class of complex geometries in $2n+2$ dimensions, specified by a Riemannian metric, a scalar field and a closed three-form, which admit a particular kind of Killing spinor. In particular, for $nge 3$, we show that when the geometry in $2n+2$ dimensions is a cone we obtain a class of geometries in $2n+1$ dimensions, specified by a Riemannian metric, a scalar field and a closed two-form, which includes the seven and nine-dimensional geometries mentioned above when $n=3,4$, respectively. We also consider various ansatz for the geometries and construct infinite classes of explicit examples for all $n$.
We show that charge-quantization of the M-theory C-field in J-twisted Cohomotopy implies emergence of a higher Sp(1)-gauge field on single heterotic M5-branes, which exhibits worldvolume twisted String structure.
In this paper, we introduce the notion of Koszul-Vinberg-Nijenhuis structures on a left-symmetric algebroid as analogues of Poisson-Nijenhuis structures on a Lie algebroid, and show that a Koszul-Vinberg-Nijenhuis structure gives rise to a hierarchy
of Koszul-Vinberg structures. We introduce the notions of ${rm KVOmega}$-structures, pseudo-Hessian-Nijenhuis structures and complementary symmetric $2$-tensors for Koszul-Vinberg structures on left-symmetric algebroids, which are analogues of ${rm POmega}$-structures, symplectic-Nijenhuis structures and complementary $2$-forms for Poisson structures. We also study the relationships between these various structures.
We consider several classes of $sigma$-models (on groups and symmetric spaces, $eta$-models, $lambda$-models) with local couplings that may depend on the 2d coordinates, e.g. on time $tau$. We observe that (i) starting with a classically integrable 2
d $sigma$-model, (ii) formally promoting its couplings $h_alpha$ to functions $h_alpha(tau)$ of 2d time, and (iii) demanding that the resulting time-dependent model also admits a Lax connection implies that $h_alpha(tau)$ must solve the 1-loop RG equations of the original theory with $tau$ interpreted as RG time. This provides a novel example of an integrability - RG flow connection. The existence of a Lax connection suggests that these time-dependent $sigma$-models may themselves be understood as integrable. We investigate this question by studying the possibility of constructing non-local and local conserved charges. Such $sigma$-models with $D$-dimensional target space and time-dependent couplings subject to the RG flow naturally appear in string theory upon fixing the light-cone gauge in a $(D+2)$-dimensional conformal $sigma$-model with a metric admitting a covariantly constant null Killing vector and a dilaton linear in the null coordinate.
