Eric Berghoff (Groningen): A target space approach to non-relativistic string theory

Mittwoch, 23. Februar 2022 14:00

Ort: Josef-Stefan-Hörsaal, Boltzmanngasse 5, 3. Stock

In this talk I will discuss the geometry underlying non-relativistic string theory. Furthermore, I will show how its low energy effective action can be obtained by taking a special non-relativistic limit of the relativistic string effective action. Next, I will discuss the T-duality properties of the target space effective action and discuss some of its basic half-supersymmetric solutions.
