On quantum deformations of and mirror duality

arXiv:2107.02564 · doi:10.1007/JHEP09(2021)110

Abstract

We consider various integrable two-parameter deformations of the superstring with quantum group symmetry. Working on the string worldsheet in light-cone gauge and to quadratic order in fermions, we obtain their common massive tree-level two-body S matrix, which matches the expansion of the conjectured exact -deformed S matrix. We then analyze the behavior of the exact S matrix under mirror transformation -- a double Wick rotation on the worldsheet -- and find that it satisfies a mirror duality relation analogous to the distinguished -deformed S matrix in the one parameter deformation limit. Finally, we show that the fermionic -deformed S matrix also satisfies such a relation.
