We study dualities in off-shell 4D N = 2 supersymmetric sigma-models, using the projective superspace approach. These include (i) duality between the real O(2n) and polar multiplets; and (ii) polar-polar duality. We demonstrate that the dual of any superconformal sigma-model is superconformal. Since N = 2 superconformal sigma-models (for which target spaces are hyperkahler cones) formulated in terms of polar multiplets are naturally associated with Kahler cones (which are target spaces for N = 1 superconformal sigma-models), polar-polar duality generates a transformation between different Kahler cones. In the non-superconformal case, we study implications of polar-polar duality for the sigma-model formulation in terms of N = 1 chiral superfields. In particular, we find the relation between the original hyperkahler potential and its dual. As an application of polar-polar duality, we study self-dual models.

Original abstract
We study dualities in off-shell 4D N = 2 supersymmetric sigma-models, using the projective superspace approach. These include (i) duality between the real O(2n) and polar multiplets; and (ii) polar-polar duality. We demonstrate that the dual of any superconformal sigma-model is superconformal. Since N = 2 superconformal sigma-models (for which target spaces are hyperkahler cones) formulated in terms of polar multiplets are naturally associated with Kahler cones (which are target spaces for N = 1 superconformal sigma-models), polar-polar duality generates a transformation between different Kahler cones. In the non-superconformal case, we study implications of polar-polar duality for the sigma-model formulation in terms of N = 1 chiral superfields. In particular, we find the relation between the original hyperkahler potential and its dual. As an application of polar-polar duality, we study self-dual models.

This requires implementing the following steps: (i) pick out a complex structure $J_3$ to realize $$ as the Kähler manifold with respect to $J_3$; (ii) introduce Darboux coordinates for $ø^(2,0)$ and then construct the $$-model ([ref]); (iii) perform the inverse Legendre transformation (or the chiral-linear duality, following the terminology of [ref] ) with respect to the variables $_I$ and their conjugates.

To work out the geometry of this self-dual model one could use that models with this particular dependence on the polar multiplet can be dualized to an $(2)$ multiplet $η$ as _2(η) =-2/g^2 + η+ √(η^2+4/g^4) -ηln(g^2η^2/2+√(η^2+g^4η^4/4)) , although there may appear contour ambiguities [ref] .
