Stringy Gauge Structures

Gerardo Aldazabal, Eduardo Andrés, Lucía M. Cabrera +1

A field theory action, able to incorporate stringy gauge symmetry enhancement-breaking effects, which occur at particular points of moduli space in a heterotic string toroidal comp…

Gauged Double Field Theory as an algebra

Eric Lescano, Martín Mayo

algebras describe the underlying algebraic structure of many consistent classical field theories. In this work we analyze the algebraic structure of Gauged Double Fiel…

Symmetry enhancement interpolation, non-commutativity and Double Field Theory

G. Aldazabal, E. Andrés, M. Mayo +1

We present a moduli dependent target space effective field theory action for (truncated) heterotic string toroidal compactifications. When moving continuously along moduli space, t…

Double Field Theory description of Heterotic gauge symmetry enhancing-breaking

Gerardo Aldazabal, Eduardo Andres, Martin Mayo +1

A Double Field Theory (DFT) description of gauge symmetry enhancing-breaking in the heterotic string is presented. The construction, based on previous results for the bosonic strin…

Gauge symmetry enhancing-breaking from a Double Field Theory perspective

G. Aldazabal, E. Andres, Martin Mayo +1

Gauge symmetry enhancing, at specific points of the compactification space, is a distinguished feature of string theory. In this work we discuss the breaking of such symmetries wit…

Probing the String Winding Sector

Gerardo Aldazabal, Martín Mayo, Carmen Nuñez

We probe a slice of the massive winding sector of bosonic string theory from toroidal compactifications of Double Field Theory (DFT). This string subsector corresponds to states co…

Enhanced gauge symmetry and winding modes in Double Field Theory

G. Aldazabal, M. Graña, S. Iguri +3

We provide an explicit example of how the string winding modes can be incorporated in double field theory. Our guiding case is the closed bosonic string compactified on a circle of…
