Duality and Canonical Transformations [PDF]
, 1996 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 ...

Monopoles, Duality, and String Theory [PDF]
International Journal of Modern Physics A, 2003 Dirac showed that the existence of magnetic monopoles would imply quantization of electric charge. I discuss the converse, and propose two 'principles of completeness' which I illustrate with various examples. Presented at the Dirac Centennial Symposium, Tallahassee, Dec. 6-7, 2002.

String duality and nonsupersymmetric strings [PDF]
Physical Review D, 1998 In recent work Kachru, Kumar and Silverstein introduced a special class of non-supersymmetric type II string theories in which the cosmological constant vanishes at the first two orders of perturbation theory. Heuristic arguments suggest the cosmological constant may vanish in these theories to all orders in perturbation theory leading to a flat ...

The complex Liouville string: The matrix integral
SciPost PhysicsWe 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.

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 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 ...

Type II Duality Symmetries in Six Dimensions [PDF]
, 1995 We discuss the different discrete duality symmetries in six dimensions that act within and between (i) the 10-dimensional heterotic string compactified on $T^4$, (ii) the 10-dimensional Type IIA string compactified on $K3$ and (iii) the 10-dimensional ...

T-duality in arbitrary string backgrounds [PDF]
Nuclear Physics B, 1996 T-Duality is a poorly understood symmetry of the space-time fields of string theory that interchanges long and short distances. It is best understood in the context of toroidal compactification where, loosely speaking, radii of the torus are inverted.

Open string T-duality in double space
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2017 The role of double space is essential in the new interpretation of T-duality and consequently in an attempt to construct M-theory. The case of the open string is missing in such an approach because until now there has been no appropriate formulation of ...

Strong-Weak Coupling Duality in Four Dimensional String Theory [PDF]
, 1994 We present several pieces of evidence for strong-weak coupling duality symmetry in the heterotic string theory, compactified on a six dimensional torus.
