Abstract

We consider an O(d,d;Z)O(d,d;\mathbb{Z}) invariant massive deformation of double field theory at the level of free theory. We study Kaluza-Klein reduction on R1,n1×TdR^{1,n-1} \times T^{d} and derive the diagonalized second order action for each helicity mode. Imposing the absence of ghosts and tachyons, we obtain a class of consistency conditions which include the well known weak constraint in double field theory as a special case. Consequently, we find two-parameter sets of O(d,d;Z)O(d,d;\mathbb{Z}) invariant Fierz-Pauli massive gravity theories.
