Lectures presented at the 33rd Karpacz Winter School ``Duality: Strings and Fields'' briefly introducing dualities in four-dimensional quantum field theory, and summarizing results found in supersymmetric field theories. The first lecture…
The dual of the four dimensional non-linear sigma model is constructed using techniques familiar to string theory. This construction necessitates the introduction of a rank two antisymmetric tensor field whose properties are examined. The…
This thesis investigates the quantum properties of T-duality invariant formalisms of String Theory. We introduce and review duality invariant formalisms of String Theory including the Doubled Formalism. We calculate the background field…
The gauge theories underlying gauged supergravity and exceptional field theory are based on tensor hierarchies: generalizations of Yang-Mills theory utilizing algebraic structures that generalize Lie algebras and, as a consequence, require…
The worldsheet theories that describe Poisson-Lie T-dualisable $\sigma$-models on group manifolds as well as integrable $\eta$, $\lambda$ and $\beta$-deformations provide examples of ${\cal E}$-models. Here we show how such ${\cal…
We show that Seiberg-like duality of $\mathcal{N}=1$ gauge theory coupled with tensor chiral fields and fundamental chiral fields works if the meson spectrum built from the tensor fields takes particular form: a) It should be truncated; b)…
In the paper a concept of a double symmetry is introduced, and its qualitative characteristics and rigorous definitions are given. We describe two ways to construct the double-symmetric field theories and present an example demonstrating…
We construct an action for double field theory using a metric connection that is compatible with both the generalised metric and the O_{D,D} structure. The connection is simultaneously torsionful and flat. Using this connection one may…
In this paper free quantum theories are derived solely from their underlying symmetry group without reference to a Lagrangean or classical physics and then interactions are introduced by making use of automorphism of the symmetry algebra.…
The coset Sp(2,R)/U(1) is parametrized by two real scalar fields. We generalize the formalism of auxiliary tensor (bispinor) fields in U(1) self-dual nonlinear models of abelian gauge fields to the case of Sp(2,R) self-duality. In this new…
It is believed that the invariance of the generalised diffeomorphisms prevents any non-trivial dilaton potential from double field theory. It is therefore difficult to include loop corrections in the formalism. We show that by redefining a…
The Ramond-Ramond sector of double field theory (DFT) can be described either as an O(D,D) spinor or an O(D-1,1) x O(1,D-1) bispinor. Both formulations may be related to the standard polyform expansion in terms of even or odd rank field…
We review the construction of free gauge theories for gauge fields in arbitrary representations of the Lorentz group in $D$ dimensions. We describe the multi-form calculus which gives the natural geometric framework for these theories. We…
We discuss how Moyal deformations of gauge theories, which arise naturally from open string theory, fit into the paradigm of colour-kinematics duality and the double copy of gauge theory to gravity. Along the way we encounter novel…
Poisson-Lie (PL) T-duality has received much attention over the last five years in connection with integrable string worldsheet theories. At the level of the worldsheet, the algebraic structure underpinning these connections is made…
We present a summary of the progress made in the last few years on topological quantum field theory in four dimensions. In particular, we describe the role played by duality in the developments which led to the Seiberg-Witten invariants and…
We construct dual formulation of linearised gravity in first order tetrad formalism in arbitrary dimensions within the path integral framework following the standard duality algorithm making use of the global shift symmetry of the tetrad…
Closed string theory exhibits an O(D,D) duality symmetry on tori, which in double field theory is manifest before compactification. I prove that to first order in $\alpha'$ there is no manifestly background independent and duality invariant…
Via T-duality a theory of open strings on a D1-brane wrapped along a cycle of slanted torus is described by a U(1) gauge theory on a D2-brane in the B-field background. It is also known that there is another dual description of the D1-brane…
