abstract

We present a unified description of the low-energy limits of type II string theories. This is achieved by a formulation that doubles the space-time coordinates in order to realize the T-duality group O(10,10) geometrically. The Ramond-Ramond fields are described by a spinor of O(10,10), which couples to the gravitational fields via the Spin(10,10) representative of the so-called generalized metric. This theory, which is supplemented by a T-duality covariant self-duality constraint, unifies the type II theories in that each of them is obtained for a particular subspace of the doubled space.

Local symmetry and the dependence on extended spacetime

hep-th · 2026-07-02 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Linearised E theory and its reduction to Siegel theory possess local symmetries under differential constraints on parameters that differ from section conditions, with the dilaton equation invariant under a non-linear parameter constraint, without needing field conditions.
