## Abstract This article is based on the publications [1–3] and the author's PhD‐thesis. We study geometric transitions on the supergravity level using the basic idea of [1], where a pair of non‐Kähler backgrounds was constructed, which are related by a geometric transition. Here we embed this idea
## Abstract We summarize an explicit construction of a duality cycle for geometric transitions in type II and heterotic theories. We emphasize that the manifolds with torsion constructed with this duality cycle are crucial for understanding different phenomena appearing in effective field theories.
