Canonical Equivalence of a Generic 2 D Dilaton Gravity Model and a Bosonic String

چکیده
We show that a canonical transformation converts, up to a boundary term, a generic 2D dilaton gravity model into a bosonic string theory with a Minkowskian target space.

Integrability of generalized (matrix) Ernst equations in string theory
The integrability structures of the matrix generalizations of the Ernst equation for Hermitian or complex symmetric d×d-matrix Ernst potentials are elucidated. These equations arise in the string theory as the equations of motion for a truncated bosonic parts of the lowenergy effective action respectively for a dilaton and d × d matrix of moduli fields or for a string gravity model with a scala...

According to the perturbation order, the equations of motion of low-energy string effective action are the generalized Einstein equations. Thus, by making use of the conformal transformation of the metric tensor, it is possible to map the low-energy string effective action into f(T) gravity, relating the dilaton field to the torsion scalar. Considering a homogeneous and isotropic universe and ...
متن کاملBäcklund transformations in 2 D dilaton gravity ∗
We give a Bäcklund transformation connecting a generic 2D dilaton gravity theory to a generally covariant free field theory. This transformation provides an explicit canonical transformation relating both theories.
متن کاملGravity, Equivalence Principle and Clocks
String theory suggests the existence of gravitational-strength scalar fields (“dilaton” and “moduli”) whose couplings to matter violate the equivalence principle. This provides a new motivation for highprecision clock experiments, as well as a generic theoretical framework for analyzing their significance.
متن کاملQuantum cosmology of generalized two-dimensional dilaton-gravity models.
The quantum cosmology of two-dimensional dilaton-gravity models is investigated. A class of models is mapped onto the constrained oscillator-ghostoscillator model. A number of exact and approximate solutions to the corresponding Wheeler-DeWitt equation are presented. A wider class of minisuperspace models that can be solved in this fashion is identified. Supersymmetric extensions to the induced...
