O(d,d)-Duality in String Theory

Felix Rennecke

A new method for obtaining dual string theory backgrounds is presented. Preservation of the Hamiltonian density and the energy momentum tensor induced by O(d,d)-transformations lea…

A Note on the CFT Origin of the Strong Constraint of DFT

Andre Betz, Ralph Blumenhagen, Dieter Lust +1

In double field theory, motivated by its field theoretic consistency, the level matching condition is generalized to the so-called strong constraint. In this note, it is investigat…

The Intriguing Structure of Non-geometric Frames in String Theory

Ralph Blumenhagen, Andreas Deser, Erik Plauschinn +2

Non-geometric frames in string theory are related to the geometric ones by certain local O(D,D) transformations, the so-called -transforms. For each such transformation, we show…

Non-geometric strings, symplectic gravity and differential geometry of Lie algebroids

Ralph Blumenhagen, Andreas Deser, Erik Plauschinn +1

Based on the structure of a Lie algebroid for non-geometric fluxes in string theory, a differential-geometry calculus is developed which combines usual diffeomorphisms with so-call…

A bi-invariant Einstein-Hilbert action for the non-geometric string

Ralph Blumenhagen, Andreas Deser, Erik Plauschinn +1

Inspired by recent studies on string theory with non-geometric fluxes, we develop a differential geometry calculus combining usual diffeomorphisms with what we call beta-diffeomorp…

Bianchi Identities for Non-Geometric Fluxes - From Quasi-Poisson Structures to Courant Algebroids

Ralph Blumenhagen, Andreas Deser, Erik Plauschinn +1

Starting from a (non-associative) quasi-Poisson structure, the derivation of a Roytenberg-type algebra is presented. From the Jacobi identities of the latter, the most general form…
