We present a dual-basis framework for analytic Bernoulli functions. On the Hurwitz side, even zeta values arise, while on the Clausen side, odd zeta values appear. Both bases are generated by the same Heisenberg--Weyl ladder and are linked…
At the classical level we study open bosonic strings. A generic description of string self-interactions localized at string ends is given. Self-interactions are characterized by two dimensionless coupling constants. The model is rewritten…
In this paper, our focus is on exploring the gauge-invariant basis for bosonic couplings within the framework of heterotic string theories, specifically examining 3-, 5-, and 7-derivative terms. We thoroughly analyze the invariance of these…
Duality is an indispensable tool for describing the strong-coupling dynamics of gauge theories. However, its actual realization is often quite subtle: quantities such as the partition function can transform covariantly, with degrees of…
We investigate (non-)Abelian T-duality from the perspective of Poisson-Lie T-plurality. We show that sigma models related by duality/plurality are given not only by Manin triples obtained from decompositions of Drinfel'd double, but also by…
Let $g$ be a reductive Lie algebra over a field of characteristic zero. Suppose $g$ acts on a complex of vector spaces $M$ by $i_\lambda$ and $L_\lambda$, which satisfy the identities as contraction and Lie derivative do for smooth…
Superstring theories at low energy limit are described by the corresponding supergravities, and their non-perturbative D-brane/O-plane excitations are described by DBI and WZ actions. Higher derivative corrections to these effective actions…
The account of the Poisson-Lie T-duality is presented for the case when the action of the duality group on a target is not free. At the same time a generalization of the picture is given when the duality group does not even act on…
We investigate how T-duality and solving the boundary conditions of the open bosonic string are related. We start by considering the T-dualization of the open string moving in the constant background. We take that the coordinates of the…
We use the off-shell string effective action method developed by E.S. Fradkin and A.A. Tseytlin to obtain the formula for all-genus string effective action with and without compactification at the low-energy approximation in the massless…
We apply the framework developed in Target Space Duality I: General Theory. We show that both nonabelian duality and Poisson-Lie duality are examples of the general theory. We propose how the formalism leads to a systematic study of duality…
We inspect the excitation energy spectrum of a confining string in terms of solitons in an effective field theory model. The spectrum can be characterized by a spectral function, and twisting and bending of the string is manifested by the…
Aspects of Poisson-Lie T-duality are reviewed in more algebraic way than in our, rather geometric, previous papers. As a new result, a moment map is constructed for the Poisson-Lie symmetry of the system consisting of open strings…
We generalize the prescription realizing classical Poisson-Lie T-duality as canonical transformation to Poisson-Lie T-plurality. The key ingredient is the transformation of left-invariant fields under Poisson-Lie T-plurality. Explicit…
The low energy effective action describing the standard Kaluza-Klein reduction of heterotic string theory on a d-torus possesses a manifest O(d,d+16) symmetry. We consider generalized Scherk-Schwarz reductions of the heterotic string to…
In this article we give a calculation of the two-loop $\sigma$-model corrections to the T-duality map in string theory. We use the effective action approach, and analyze two-loop corrections in a specific subtraction scheme. Focusing on…
We construct O(D,D) invariant actions for the bosonic string and RNS superstring, using Hamiltonian methods and ideas from double field theory. In this framework the doubled coordinates of double field theory appear as coordinates on phase…
We review the concept of the (anomalous) Poisson-Lie symmetry in a way that emphasises the notion of Poisson-Lie Hamiltonian. The language that we develop turns out to be very useful for several applications: we prove that the left and the…
Toroidal backgrounds for bosonic strings are used to understand target space duality as a symmetry of string field theory and to study explicitly issues in background independence. Our starting point is the notion that the string field…
The self-duality of the N=1 supersymmetric Born--Infeld action implies a double self-duality of the tensor multiplet square-root action when the scalar and the antisymmetric tensor are interchanged via Poincare' duality. We show how this…
