Abstract

We realize the string/(D5)(D-5)-brane duality on the action level between the T10DT^{10-D}-compactified heterotic string effective action and the (D5)(D-5)- brane effective action in DD dimensions by managing a Lagrange multiplier field. A dual dictionary is composed to be available for the translation between the elementary or solitonic solutions of the dual pair of actions. In the same way the SS duality is also reconstructed on the action level as a double dualization for the T6T^6-compactified heterotic string effective action.
