Dirac maps and generalized complex geometry on homogeneous spaces

Generalized complex geometry [14] and, more generally, Dirac geometry [8], [9], unify several familiar geometric structures into one uniform viewpoint. In this thesis, we consider equivariant Dirac structures on homogeneous spaces as well as a new notion of morphisms between manifolds equipped with...
