Topological structures in string theory
In string theory space-time comes equipped with an additional geometric structure called a B-field or 'gerbe'. I describe this structure, mention its relationship with noncommutative geometry, and explain how to use the B-field to define a twisted version of the K-theory of space-time. Str...
