Abstract

We propose a Leibniz algebra, to be called DD+^+, which is a generalization of the Drinfel'd double. We find that there is a one-to-one correspondence between a DD+^+ and a Jacobi--Lie bialgebra, extending the known correspondence between a Lie bialgebra and a Drinfel'd double. We then construct generalized frame fields EAMO(D,D)×R+E_A{}^M\in\text{O}(D,D)\times\mathbb{R}^+ satisfying the algebra LEAEB=XABCEC\mathcal{L}_{E_A}E_B = - X_{AB}{}^C\,E_C\,, where XABCX_{AB}{}^C are the structure constants of the DD+^+ and L\mathcal{L} is the generalized Lie derivative in double field theory. Using the generalized frame fields, we propose the Jacobi-Lie T-plurality and show that it is a symmetry of double field theory. We present several examples of the Jacobi-Lie T-plurality with or without Ramond-Ramond fields and the spectator fields.
