We extend the T-duality for gauge theory to that on curved space described asa nontrivial fiber bundle. We also present a new viewpoint concerning theconsistent truncation and the T-duality for gauge theory and discuss therelation between the vacua on the total space and on the base space. Asexamples, we consider S^3(/Z_k), S^5(/Z_k) and the Heisenberg nilmanifold.Comment: 24 pages, typos correcte
