See the wikipedia, it has useful infotmation:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_Volume_Manager_(Linux)

For dual boot, as said on the list,i think windows cannot read lvm.

But if you dont want share data between both, you can create a boot partition, then an windows partition, and a lvm extended partition. And install linux on the lvm partition
