SO(5,5) duality in M-theory and generalized geometry
David S. Berman, Hadi Godazgar, Malcolm J. Perry
We attempt to reformulate eleven dimensional supergravity in terms of an object that unifies the three-form and the metric and makes the M-theory duality group manifest. This short…
Kac-Moody and Virasoro Symmetries of Principal Chiral Sigma Models
H. Lu, M. J. Perry, C. N. Pope +1
It is commonly asserted that there is a \hat G\times G centreless Kac-Moody extension of the manifest G\times G global symmetry of the two-dimensional principal chiral model (PCM)…
Infinite-Dimensional Symmetries of Two-Dimensional Coset Models
H. Lu, M. J. Perry, C. N. Pope
It has long been appreciated that the toroidal reduction of any gravity or supergravity to two dimensions gives rise to a scalar coset theory exhibiting an infinite-dimensional glo…
Partition Functions, the Bekenstein Bound and Temperature Inversion in Anti-de Sitter Space and its Conformal Boundary
G. W. Gibbons, M. J. Perry, C. N. Pope
We reformulate the Bekenstein bound as the requirement of positivity of the Helmholtz free energy at the minimum value of the function L=E- S/(2πR), where R is some measure of the…
The First Law of Thermodynamics for Kerr-Anti-de Sitter Black Holes
G. W. Gibbons, M. J. Perry, C. N. Pope
We obtain expressions for the mass and angular momenta of rotating black holes in anti-de Sitter backgrounds in four, five and higher dimensions. We verify explicitly that our expr…
Off-shell structure of the string sigma model
Alan Kostelecky, Malcolm Perry, Robertus Potting
The off-shell structure of the string sigma model is investigated. In the open bosonic string, nonperturbative effects are shown to depend crucially on the regularization scheme. A…
