Abstract

We study topological T-duality for spaces with a semi-free S1-action with isolated fixed points. Physically, these correspond to spacetimes containing Kaluza-Klein monopoles. We demonstrate that the physical dyonic coordinate of such spaces has an analogue in our formalism. By analogy with the Dirac monopole, we study these spaces as gerbes. We study the effect of Topological T-duality on these gerbes.
