Strong/Weak Coupling Duality from the Dual String [PDF]
On compactification to six spacetime dimensions, the fundamental heterotic string admits as a soliton a dual string whose effective worldsheet action couples to the background fields of the dual formulation of six-dimensional supergravity.

NONCOMMUTATIVE GEOMETRY, STRINGS AND DUALITY [PDF]
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.

Surveying the Three-Dimensional Fixed Points of T-Duality [PDF]
We explore the family of fixed points of T-Duality transformations in three dimensions. For the simplest nontrivial self-duality conditions it is possible to show that, additionally to the spacelike isometry in which the T-Duality transformation is ...

Open-string T-duality and applications to non-geometric backgrounds
We revisit T-duality transformations for the open string via Buscher’s procedure and work-out technical details which have been missing so far in the literature.

Duality and Canonical Transformations [PDF]
We present a brief review on the canonical transformation description of some duality symmetries in string and gauge theories. In particular, we consider abelian and non-abelian T-dualities in closed and open string theories as well as S-duality in ...

The complex Liouville string: The matrix integral
We propose a duality between the complex Liouville string and a two-matrix integral. The complex Liouville string is defined by coupling two Liouville theories with complex central charges $c = 13 ± i \lambda$ on the worldsheet.

We propose a new AdS 3 /CFT 2 duality, in which the bulk string theory has a target spacetime AdS 3 times a squashed three-sphere S ♭ 3 $$ {\mathbbm{S}}_{\flat}^3 $$ , and the dual CFT 2 is a symmetric product of sigma models on ℝ ϕ × S ♭ 3 $$ {\mathbbm ...

On open/closed string duality [PDF]
It was recently shown, using the AdS/CFT correspondence, that the low energy effective action of a large $N$ open string theory satisfies a holographic RG flow equation closely related to the Hamilton-Jacobi equation of 5-d supergravity. In this paper we re-obtain the same flow equation in the dual regime of small 't Hooft coupling $ \ll 1$.
