T-duality of anomalous Chern-Simons couplings

High Energy Physics - Theory 2011-08-04 v7

Abstract

It is known that the anomalous Dp_p-brane Chern-Simons couplings are not consistent with the standard rules of T-duality. Using compatibility of these couplings with the linear T-duality transformations, the B-field gauge transformations and with the general coordinate transformations as guiding principles we find new couplings at order O(α2)O(\alpha'^2) for C(p3){\cal C}^{(p-3)}, C(p1){\cal C}^{(p-1)}, C(p+1){\cal C}^{(p+1)} and C(p+3){\cal C}^{(p+3)}.
