On S - Duality in Four - Dimensional
We show that a necessary condition, for the partition function of four-dimensional Yang-Mills theory to satisfy a S-duality property, is that certain functional determinants, generated by the dual change of variables, cancel each other. This result holds up to non-topological boundary terms in the dual action and modulo the problem of field-strength copies for the Bianchi identity constraint.
متن کاملDuality and Four-Dimensional Black Holes
We consider the effects of abelian duality transformations on static, spherically-symmetric, asymptotically flat string spacetimes in four dimensions, where the dilaton, axion, metric, and gauge fields are allowed to be nonzero. Independent of the α′ expansion, there is a six-parameter family of such configurations, labelled by the charges characterizing the asymptotic behaviour of the various ...
متن کاملDuality symmetry in four dimensional string actions
We reduce the dual version of D = 10, N = 1 supergravity coupled to n vector fields to four dimensions, and derive the SL(2, R) × O(6, 6 + n) transformations which leave the equations of motion invariant. For n = 0 SL(2, R) is also a symmetry of the action, but for n > 0 only those SL(2, R) transformations which act linearly on all fields leave the action invariant. The resulting four-dimension...
متن کاملStrong-Weak Coupling Duality in Four Dimensional String Theory
We present several pieces of evidence for strong-weak coupling duality symmetry in the heterotic string theory, compactified on a six dimensional torus. These include symmetry of the 1) low energy effective action, 2) allowed spectrum of electric and magnetic charges in the theory, 3) allowed mass spectrum of particles saturating the Bogomol’nyi bound, and 4) Yukawa couplings between massless n...
متن کاملSome Comments on S-duality in Four Dimensional Qcd
