Abstract

We investigate the open string propagation in the weakly curved background with the Kalb-Ramond field containing an infinitesimal part, linear in coordinate. Solving the Neumann boundary conditions, we find the expression for the space-time coordinates in terms of the effective ones. So, the initial theory reduces to the effective one. This effective theory is defined on the nongeometric doubled space (qμ,q~μ)(q^\mu,\tilde{q}_\mu), where qμq^\mu is the effective coordinate and q~μ\tilde{q}_\mu is its T-dual. The effective metric depends on the coordinate qμq^\mu and there exists non-trivial effective Kalb-Ramond field which depends on the T-dual coordinate q~μ\tilde{q}_\mu. The fact that q~μ\tilde{q}_\mu is Ω\Omega-odd leads to the nonvanishing effective Kalb-Ramond field.
