BRST symmetry of doubled membrane sigma-models
Athanasios Chatzistavrakidis, Clay J. Grewcoe, Larisa Jonke +2
Courant sigma-models encode the geometric and non-geometric fluxes of compactified closed string theory as generalized Wess-Zumino terms and exhibit their relation to Courant algeb…
The Algebroid Structure of Double Field Theory
Athanasios Chatzistavrakidis, Larisa Jonke, Fech Scen Khoo +1
By doubling the target space of a canonical Courant algebroid and subsequently projecting down to a specific subbundle, we identify the data of double field theory (DFT) and hence…
Double Field Theory and Membrane Sigma-Models
Athanasios Chatzistavrakidis, Larisa Jonke, Fech Scen Khoo +1
We investigate geometric aspects of double field theory (DFT) and its formulation as a doubled membrane sigma-model. Starting from the standard Courant algebroid over the phase spa…
Tensor Galileons and Gravity
Athanasios Chatzistavrakidis, Fech Scen Khoo, Diederik Roest +1
The particular structure of Galileon interactions allows for higher-derivative terms while retaining second order field equations for scalar fields and Abelian -forms. In this w…
Generalized geometry and non-symmetric gravity
Branislav Jurco, Fech Scen Khoo, Peter Schupp +1
Generalized geometry provides the framework for a systematic approach to non-symmetric metric gravity theory and naturally leads to an Einstein-Kalb-Ramond gravity theory with tota…
Partition Function of Chiral Boson on 2-Torus from Floreanini-Jackiw Lagrangian
Wei-Ming Chen, Pei-Ming Ho, Hsien-chung Kao +2
We revisit the problem of quantizing a chiral boson on a torus. The conventional approach is to extract the partition function of a chiral boson from the path integral of a non-chi…
Finite temperature Casimir effect of massive fermionic fields in the presence of compact dimensions
F. S. Khoo, L. P. Teo
We consider the finite temperature Casimir effect of a massive fermionic field confined between two parallel plates, with MIT bag boundary conditions on the plates. The background…
