In the doubled field theory approach to string theory, the T-duality group is promoted to a manifest symmetry at the expense of replacing ordinary Riemannian geometry with generalised geometry on a doubled space. The local symmetries are then given by a generalised Lie derivative and its associated algebra. This paper constructs an analogous structure for M-theory. A crucial by-product of this is the derivation of the physical section condition for M-theory formulated in an extended space.

  1. Gauss law constraint in A-theory branes

    hep-th 2026-03 conditional novelty 6.0

    In D=3 and D=4 A-theory, all consistent solutions of the Gauss-law dimensional-reduction condition are strings, and the brane Virasoro algebra reduces to the ordinary string Virasoro algebra.
