abstract
We investigate $\alpha'$ corrections of bosonic strings in the framework of double field theory. The previously introduced "doubled $\alpha'$-geometry" gives $\alpha'$-deformed gauge transformations arising in the Green-Schwarz anomaly cancellation mechanism but does not apply to bosonic strings. These require a different deformation of the duality-covariantized Courant bracket which governs the gauge structure. This is revealed by examining the $\alpha'$ corrections in the gauge algebra of closed string field theory. We construct a four-derivative cubic double field theory action invariant under the deformed gauge transformations, giving a first glimpse of the gauge principle underlying bosonic string $\alpha'$ corrections. The usual metric and $b$-field are related to the duality covariant fields by non-covariant field redefinitions.

Gauge algebra and diffeomorphisms in string field theory
To leading order in derivatives, the superstring gauge algebra of diffeomorphisms is independent of the off-shell vertex choice, whereas bosonic strings retain off-shell dependence for non-symmetric vertices.

The non-relativistic limit of HSZ Theory
The non-relativistic limit of HSZ theory produces non-removable metric and b-field transformation corrections, and a finite four-derivative action requires field redefinitions before the limit.

Mega-Space Current Algebra and Green-Schwarz Geometry in Heterotic String Theory
A Poláček-Siegel mega-space current algebra with Lorentz and heterotic gauge sectors embeds Chern-Simons structures and yields a Green-Schwarz-like Bianchi identity from Jacobi identities, without the α′ tr(R∧R) term.

Carrollian bosonic supergravity at order $\alpha'$ and the universal cancellation of higher-curvature divergences
Four-derivative and higher pure-gravitational α' corrections to bosonic supergravity admit a finite Carrollian limit, with an explicit action and a universal finiteness criterion for Riem^N terms.

In type 0A on a two-circle wedge, isolated collapsing-branch D_p^- sources incur infinite RR field energy cost as the branch shrinks, with possible infrared screening or discharge to D_p^+ via an effective relative-ch...
