Possible constraints on string theory in closed space with symmetries
Abstract It is well known that certain quadratic constraints have to be imposed on linearized gravity in closed space with symmetries. We review this phenomenon and discuss one of the constraints which arise in linearized gravity on static flat torus in detail. Then we point out that the mode with negative kinetic energy, which is necessary for satisfying this constraint, appears to be missing ...
متن کاملSymmetries and Special States in Two Dimensional String Theory
We use the W∞ symmetry of c = 1 quantum gravity to compute matrix model special state correlation functions. The results are compared, and found to agree, with expectations from the Liouville model. Work supported by a Harold W. Dodds Fellowship
متن کاملPhysical States and String Symmetries
It is shown that if the momenta belong to an integral lattice, then every physical state of string theory leads to a symmetry of the scattering amplitudes. We discuss the role of this symmetry when the momenta are those provided by the usual D.D.F construction and show that the string compactified on the torus associated with the self-dual Lorentzian lattice, Π 25,1 possess the Fake Monster Lie...
متن کاملString Theory Symmetries
A brief review of the status of duality symmetries in string theory is presented. The evidence is accumulating rapidly that an enormous group of duality symmetries, including perturbative T dualities and non-perturbative Sdualities, underlies string theory. It is my hope that an understanding of these symmetries will suggest the right way to formulate non-perturbative string theory. Whether or ...
متن کاملNoncompact Symmetries in String Theory ⋆
Noncompact groups, similar to those that appeared in various supergravity theories in the 1970’s, have been turning up in recent studies of string theory. First it was discovered that moduli spaces of toroidal compactification are given by noncompact groups modded out by their maximal compact subgroups and discrete duality groups. Then it was found that many other moduli spaces have analogous d...
