We revisit the formulation of non-relativistic (NR) string theory and its target space geometry. We obtain a new formulation in which the geometry contains a two-form field that couples to the tension current and that transforms under string Galilei boosts. This parallels the Newton-Cartan one-form that couples to the mass current of a non-relativistic point particle. We show how this formulation of the NR string arises both from an infinite speed of light limit and a null reduction of the relativistic closed bosonic string. In both cases, the two-form originates from a combination of metric quantities and the Kalb-Ramond field. The target space geometry of the NR string is seen to arise from the gauging of a new algebra that is obtained by an Inonu-Wigner contraction of the Poincar\'e algebra extended by the symmetries of the Kalb-Ramond field. In this new formulation, there are no superfluous target space fields that can be removed by fixing a St\"uckelberg symmetry. Classically, there are no foliation/torsion constraints imposed on the target space geometry.

Carrollian limit of NS-NS and Heterotic Supergravity
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.

Quantum Fluctuations and Newton-Cartan Geometry for Non-Relativistic de Sitter space
The one-loop partition function for non-relativistic de Sitter gravity yields a T² prefactor consistent with four symmetry generators, and the bulk admits a torsionless Newton-Cartan geometry satisfying the non-relati...

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

Quantum Fluctuations and Newton-Cartan Geometry for Non-Relativistic de Sitter space
The one-loop partition function of the Galilean-de Sitter boundary theory is Z(β) = (2/πβ²) exp(4π²c₀/β), whose β⁻² prefactor matches the four generators of the EdS-G algebra; the matching bulk is a Newton-Cartan geom...

An Introduction to String Newton-Cartan Holography and Integrability
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.
