Scale-factor duality in string Bianchi cosmologies

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2016-08-31 v2

Abstract

We apply the scale factor duality transformations introduced in the context of the effective string theory to the anisotropic Bianchi-type models. We find dual models for all the Bianchi-types [except for types VIIIVIII and IXIX] and construct for each of them its explicit form starting from the exact original solution of the field equations. It is emphasized that the dual Bianchi class BB models require the loss of the initial homogeneity symmetry of the dilatonic scalar field.
