Topological T-Duality for Twisted Tori

چکیده
We apply the $C^*$-algebraic formalism of topological T-duality due to Mathai and Rosenberg a broad class spaces that include torus bundles appearing in string theory compactifications with duality twists, such as nilmanifolds, well many other examples. develop simple procedure this setting for constructing T-duals starting from commutative $C^*$-algebra an action ${\mathbb R}^n$. treat general almost abelian solvmanifolds arbitrary dimension detail, where we provide necessary sufficient criteria existence classical terms purely group theoretic data, compute them explicitly continuous-trace algebras non-trivial Dixmier-Douady classes. prove any solvmanifold has T-dual given by bundle noncommutative tori, which also explicitly. The monodromy original becomes Morita equivalence among fiber algebras, so these $C^*$-algebras rigorously describe T-folds non-geometric theory.

Gauge Fields on Tori and T-duality
We discuss gauge fields on tori in diverse dimensions, mainly in two and four dimensions. We construct various explicit gauge fields which have some topological charges and find the Dirac zero modes in the background of the gauge fields. By using the zero mode, we give new gauge fields on the dual torus, which is a gauge theoretical description of T-duality transformation of the corresponding D...
متن کاملBeyond Twisted Tori
Exploiting the fact that Kaluza–Klein monopoles and the associated generalized orbifold planes are sources for geometrical fluxes, ω, we show that the standard constraint ω ω = 0, valid for superstring compactifications on twisted tori, can be consistently relaxed. This leads to novel possibilities for constructing superstring models with fluxes and localized sources, as well as for stabilizing...
متن کاملCosmology with twisted tori
We consider the cosmological role of the scalar fields generated by the compactification of 11dimensional Einstein gravity on a 7-dimensional elliptic twisted torus, which has the attractive features of giving rise to a positive semidefinite potential, and partially fixing the moduli. This compactification is therefore relevant for low-energy M-theory, 11-dimensional supergravity. We find that ...
متن کاملTwisted Duality for Embedded Graphs
We consider two operations on an edge of an embedded graph (or equivalently a ribbon graph): giving a half-twist to the edge, and taking the partial dual with respect to the edge. These two operations give rise to an action of S3 |E(G)|, the ribbon group, on G. The action of the ribbon group on embedded graphs extends the concepts of duality, partial duality, and Petrie duality. We show that th...
متن کاملNon-Commutative Moduli Spaces, Dielectric Tori and T-duality
We review and extend recent work on the application of the noncommutative geometric framework to an interpretation of the moduli space of vacua of certain deformations of N = 4 super Yang-Mills theories. We present a simple worldsheet calculation that reproduces the field theory results and sheds some light on the dynamics of the Dbrane bubbles. Different regions of moduli space are associated ...
