On the Eleventh Dimension of String Theory
Noureddine Mohammedi
An explanation of the origin of the hidden eleventh dimension in string theory is given. It is shown that any two sigma models describing the propagation of string backgrounds are…

Anti-field Formalism and Non-Abelian Duality
P. J. Hodges, Noureddine Mohammedi
The act of implementing non-Abelian duality in two dimensional sigma models results unavoidably in an additional reducible symmetry. The Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism is employed to…

A Novel Symmetry in Sigma Models
Noureddine Mohammedi
A class of non-linear sigma models possessing a new symmetry is identified. The same symmetry is also present in Chern-Simons theories. This hints at a possible topological origin…
