T-duality and U-duality in toroidally-compactified strings
We address the issue of T-duality and U-duality symmetries in the toroidally-compactified type IIA string. It is customary to take as a starting point the dimensionally-reduced maximal supergravity theories, with certain field strengths dualised such that the classical theory exhibits a global En(n) symmetry, where n = 11 − D in D dimensions. A discrete subgroup then becomes the conjectured U-d...
متن کاملU-duality Between NCOS Theory and Matrix Theory
We show that the NCOS (noncommutative open string) theories on torus T p (p ≤ 5) are U-dual to matrix theory on torus with electric flux background. Under U-duality, the number of D-branes and the number of units of electric flux get interchanged. Furthermore under the same U-duality the decoupling limit taken in the NCOS theory maps to the decoupling limit taken in the matrix theory, thus ensu...
متن کاملDuality in nontrivially compactified heterotic strings.
We study the implications of duality symmetry on the analyticity properties of the partition function as it depends upon the compactification length. In order to obtain non-trivial compactifications, we give a physical prescription to get the Helmholtz free energy for any heterotic string supersymmetric or not. After proving that the free energy is always invariant under the duality transformat...
متن کاملS-duality and Tensionless 5-branes in Compactified Heterotic String Theory
We give a simple proof of the known S-duality of Heterotic String theory compactified on a T6. Using this S-duality we calculate the tensions for a class of BPS 5-branes in Heterotic String theory on a S1. One of these, the Kaluza-Klein monopole, becomes tensionless when the radius of the S1 is equal to the string length. We study the question of stability of the Heterotic NS5-brane with a tran...
متن کاملThe Phases of 2D NCOS
We study the phases of the 1+1 dimensional Non-Commutative Open String theory on a circle. We find that the length scale of non-commutativity increases at strong coupling, the coupling in turn being dressed by a power of D-string charge. The system is stringy at around this length scale, with dynamics involving an interplay between the open and wrapped closed strings sectors. Above this energy ...
