Recently, it has been shown that the gauge invariance requires the minimum number of independent couplings for $B$-field, metric and dilaton at order $\alpha'^2$ to be 60. In this paper we fix the corresponding 60 parameters in string…
Recent progress in string theory has unveiled the discovery of NS-NS couplings in bosonic and heterotic effective actions at order $\alpha'^2$, which were achieved by imposing $O(1,1)$ symmetry on the circle reduction of classical effective…
In this work, we derive the classical effective action of bosonic string theory at order $\alpha'^{3}$ for the metric, Kalb-Ramond field, and dilaton by imposing a higher-derivative extension of the Buscher rules on the circular reduction…
Recent studies suggest that applying the Buscher rules to the dimensional reduction of ten-dimensional, one-loop effective actions generate "purely stringy" couplings in nine dimensions that cannot be lifted to a local, covariant form in…
It has been speculated in the literature that the effective actions of string theories at any order of $\alpha'$ should be invariant under the Buscher rules plus their higher covariant derivative corrections. This may be used as a…
In bosonic string theory, it is known that the Buscher rules for the T-duality transformations receive quantum corrections at order $\alpha'$. In this paper, we use the consistency of the gravity couplings on the D-brane effective action at…
It is known that the anomalous Chern-Simons (CS) coupling of O$_p$-plane is not consistent with the T-duality transformations. Compatibility of this coupling with the T-duality requires the inclusion of couplings involving one R-R field…
In this letter we establish that the supersymmetric R^2 effective action for the heterotic string, obtained from the supersymmetrisation of the Lorentz Chern-Simons term, is to order $\alpha'$ equivalent modulo field redefinitions to…
Using the compatibility of the anomalous Chern-Simons couplings on D$_p$-branes with the linear T-duality and with the antisymmetric B-field gauge transformations, some couplings have been recently found for $C^{(p-3)}$ at order…
Recent work has proposed a method for imposing T-duality on the metric, $B$-field, and dilaton of the classical effective action of string theory without using Kaluza-Klein reduction. Specifically, the $D$-dimensional effective action…
We examine the known Riemann curvature corrections to the supergravity action at order $\alpha'^3$ under the T-duality transformations. Using the compatibility of the action with the linear T-duality and with the S-matrix calculations as…
We study systematically the higher order corrections to the parity violating part of the effective action for the Abelian Chern-Simons theory in 2+1 dimensions, using the method of derivative expansion. We explicitly calculate the parity…
Recently, it has been shown that the minimum number of gauge invariant couplings for $B$-field, metric and dilaton at order $\alpha'^3$ is 872. These couplings, in a particular scheme, appear in 55 different structures. In this paper, up to…
We construct an $O(d,d)$ invariant universal formulation of the first-order $\alpha'$-corrections of the string effective actions involving the dilaton, metric and two-form fields. Two free parameters interpolate between four-derivative…
It has been speculated that the metric, $B$-field and dilaton couplings in the low energy effective action of string theory at any order of $\alpha'$ may be found by imposing the gauge symmetries and the T-duality on the effective action.…
Higher-derivative interactions and transformation rules of the fields in the effective field theories of the massless string states are strongly constrained by space-time symmetries and dualities. Here we use an exact formulation of ten…
We derive the ten-dimensional effective action of the strongly coupled heterotic string as the low energy limit of M-theory on S^1/Z_2. In contrast to a conventional dimensional reduction, it is necessary to integrate out nontrivial heavy…
It is well-established that compactifying type I string theory on a circle \( S^{(1)} \) transforms the theory under T-duality into type I' theory, the compactification of type IIA string theory on the orbifold \(…
In this study, we thoroughly investigate the covariant and $B$-field gauge invariant odd-parity NS-NS couplings at order $\alpha'^3$, while considering the removal of field redefinitions, Bianchi identities, and total derivative freedoms.…
We use compatibility of the $D$-dimensional effective actions for diagonal metric and for dilaton with the T-duality when theory is compactified on a circle, to find the the $D$-dimensional couplings of curvatures and dilaton as well as the…
