abstract

Motivated by the recent construction of non-relativistic (NR) heterotic Double Field Theory (HDFT), we analyze the $D=10$ bosonic sector of heterotic supergravity under a consistent NR limit. We show that the resulting theory admits a finite Lagrangian due to non-trivial cancellations of divergent contributions arising from the Chern-Simons terms in the curvature of the $\hat B$-field and from the Yang-Mills sector. This mechanism parallels the well-known cancellation between the Ricci scalar $\hat R$ and the $-\frac{1}{12}\hat H^2$ term in bosonic supergravity under the same limit. Extending previous analyses, we incorporate the full bosonic gauge sector emerging from the HDFT construction and derive the complete finite bosonic heterotic Lagrangian in manifestly gauge-covariant form, written in terms of gauge-covariant curvatures and derivatives. An interesting feature of the NR expansion is that the gauged Green-Schwarz transformation of the two-form trivializes (it can be eliminated by imposing field redefinitions), while terms equivalent to Chern-Simons contributions naturally re-emerge in the effective theory.

  1. Carrollian limit of NS-NS and Heterotic Supergravity

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Ultra-relativistic expansion plus dilaton scaling produces finite covariant Carrollian NS-NS and heterotic supergravity actions, with trivializable Green-Schwarz for the 1-form and finite leading Riem^{2} α' corrections.

  2. Curvatures and Non-metricities in the Non-Relativistic Limit of Bosonic Supergravity

    hep-th 2026-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A metric-only, torsionless-connection formulation with fixed non-metricities rewrites the non-relativistic limit of bosonic supergravity covariantly and matches the vielbein string Newton-Cartan action at Lagrangian level.

  3. The non-relativistic limit of HSZ Theory

    hep-th 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    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.

  4. Carrollian bosonic supergravity at order $\alpha'$ and the universal cancellation of higher-curvature divergences

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    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.

  5. An Introduction to String Newton-Cartan Holography and Integrability

    hep-th 2026-03 accept novelty 3.0 of 10

    String Newton-Cartan holography, the non-relativistic limit of the AdS/CFT correspondence, is organized and reviewed around five consistency conditions, with its classical solutions, spectrum, and integrability structure.
