Non-geometric Kaluza-Klein monopoles and magnetic duals of M-theory R-flux backgrounds

Abstract We introduce a magnetic analogue of the seven-dimensional nonassociative octonionic R-flux algebra that describes the phase space of M2-branes in four-dimensional locally non-geometric M-theory backgrounds. We show that these two algebras are related by a Spin(7) automorphism of the 3-algeb...
