Double field theory of type II strings
We use double field theory to give a unified description of the low energy limits of type IIA and type IIB superstrings. The Ramond-Ramond potentials fit into spinor representations of the duality group O(D, D) and field-strengths are obtained by acting with the Dirac operator on the potentials. The...
