   Sažetak:

  A possible geometry for "Quantum Gravity" motivated by principles of general
relativity and quantum mechanics will be constructed. String theory
naturally lives in such a geometry which has twice the usual number of
dimensions. I will introduce the idea of Born geometry and discuss concepts
such as the doubled string sigma model and the corresponding effective
target space theory called double field theory. This makes the global O(d,d)
symmetry of the string Hamiltonian manifest in the target space. Using the
tools of Born geometry then allows for a generalization of the kinematics
and dynamics of double field theory.
