Abstract

In these notes we give an introduction to the concept of spaces with G × G‐structure and their structured submanifolds. These objects generalise the classical notion of a calibrated submanifold. Therefore, they are interesting from a string theory viewpoint as they are relevant to describe D‐branes in string compactifications on backgrounds with fluxes. This article is based on a talk given by the first author at the RTN Workshop “Constituents, Fundamental Forces and Symmetries of the Universe”, Naples, Italy, 9–13 Oct 2006.
