abstract

We give the classification of T-duals of the flat background in four dimensions with respect to one-, two-, and three-dimensional subgroups of the Poincar\'e group using non-Abelian T-duality with spectators. As duals we find backgrounds for sigma models in the form of plane-parallel waves or diagonalizable curved metrics often with torsion. Among others, we find exactly solvable time-dependent isotropic pp-wave, singular pp-waves, or generalized plane wave (K-model).

    For most Thurston geometries, the paper constructs explicit non-Abelian T-dual metrics and B-fields via Poisson-Lie duality, yielding 20 string backgrounds.
