Double field theory: a pedagogical review
Double field theory (DFT) is a proposal to incorporate T-duality, a distinctive symmetry of
string theory, as a symmetry of a field theory defined on a double configuration space. The …

Duality symmetric string and M-theory
We review recent developments in duality symmetric string theory. We begin with the world-
sheet doubled formalism which describes strings in an extended spacetime with extra …

Exceptional field theory. II.
We introduce the exceptional field theory for the group E 7 (7), based on a (4+ 56)-
dimensional spacetime subject to a covariant section condition. The “internal” generalized …

Exceptional field theory. I. -covariant form of M-theory and type IIB
We present the details of the recently constructed E 6 (6)-covariant extension of 11-
dimensional supergravity. This theory requires a 5+ 27-dimensional spacetime in which the …

Consistent type IIB reductions to maximal 5D supergravity
We use exceptional field theory as a tool to work out the full nonlinear reduction ansatz for
the AdS 5× S 5 compactification of IIB supergravity and its noncompact counterparts in which …
