O(D, D) and the string α′ expansion: an obstruction

Abstract Double Field Theory (DFT) is an attempt to make the O(d, d) T-duality symmetry of string theory manifest, already before reducing on a d-torus. It is known that supergravity can be formulated in an O(D, D) covariant way, and remarkably this remains true to the first order in α′. We set up a...
