ON TARGET-SPACE DUALITY IN P-BRANES Academic Article

abstract

• We study the target space duality transformations in p-branes as transformations which mix the world volume field equations with Bianchi identities. We consider an (m+p+1)-dimensional space-time with p+1 dimensions compactified, and a particular form of the background fields. We find that while a GL (2) = SL (2) R group is realized when m = 0, only a two-parameter group is realized when m > 0.
