Evidence for Non-perturbative String Symmetries

High Energy Physics - Theory 2011-04-15 v2

Abstract

String theory appears to admit a group of discrete field transformations -- called SS dualities -- as exact non-perturbative quantum symmetries. Mathematically, they are rather analogous to the better-known TT duality symmetries, which hold perturbatively. In this talk the evidence for SS duality is reviewed and some speculations are presented.
