Fractons, non-Riemannian geometry, and double field theory

We initiate a systematic study of fracton physics within the geometric framework of double field theory. We ascribe the immobility and large degeneracy of the former to the non-Riemannian backgrounds of the latter, in terms of generalized geodesics and infinite-dimensional isometries. A doubled pure...
