Electric - magnetic Duality in Noncommutative Geometry
The structure of S-duality in U(1) gauge theory on a 4-manifold M is examined using the formalism of noncommutative geometry. A noncommutative space is constructed from the algebra of Wilson-’t Hooft line operators which encodes both the ordinary geometry of M and its infinite-dimensional loop space geometry. S-duality is shown to act as an inner automorphism of the algebra and arises as a cons...
متن کاملDuality in Noncommutative Geometry
The structure of spacetime duality and discrete worldsheet symmetries of compactified string theory is examined within the framework of noncommutative geometry. The full noncommutative string spacetime is constructed using the Fröhlich-Gawȩdzki spectral triple which incorporates the vertex operator algebra of the string theory. The duality group appears naturally as a subgroup of the automorphi...
متن کاملNoncommutative Geometry, Strings and Duality
In this talk, based on work done in collaboration with G. Landi and R.J Szabo, I will review how string theory can be considered as a noncommutative geometry based on an algebra of vertex operators. The spectral triple of strings is introduced, and some of the string symmetries, notably target space duality, are discussed in this framework. [email protected] It is a common belief that at ...
متن کاملNoncommutative Geometry and String Duality
A review of the applications of noncommutative geometry to a systematic formulation of duality symmetries in string theory is presented. The spectral triples associated with a lattice vertex operator algebra and the corresponding Dirac-Ramond operators are constructed and shown to naturally incorporate target space and discrete worldsheet dualities as isometries of the noncommutative space. The...
متن کاملDuality and Equivalence of Module Categories in Noncommutative Geometry Ii: Mukai Duality for Holomorphic Noncommutative Tori
This is the second in a series of papers intended to set up a framework to study categories of modules in the context of non-commutative geometries. In [3] we introduced the basic DG category PA• , the perfect category of A•, which corresponded to the category of coherent sheaves on a complex manifold. In this paper we enlarge this category to include objects which correspond to quasi-coherent ...
