论文摘要
这是对特殊领域理论的评论:Kaluza-Klein理论的概括,该理论将超级高度的自由度和$ p $ - 形式的轨距范围统一到概括或扩展的几何形状,其其他坐标可将其额外的坐标视为与Brane Dinting模式相连的几何形状。这统一了最大的超级实力,将其先前隐藏的特殊谎言对称视为基本的几何对称性。解决方案的二元轨道简化为单个对象,在许多情况下,这些对象具有简单的几何解释,例如波浪或单极型解决方案。它还提供了探索M理论的异国情调或非几何方面的途径,例如异国麸皮,U折和更多新颖的非伊曼尼亚人空间。
This is a review of exceptional field theory: a generalisation of Kaluza-Klein theory that unifies the metric and $p$-form gauge field degrees of freedom of supergravity into a generalised or extended geometry, whose additional coordinates may be viewed as conjugate to brane winding modes. This unifies the maximal supergravities, treating their previously-hidden exceptional Lie symmetries as a fundamental geometric symmetry. Duality orbits of solutions simplify into single objects, that in many cases have simple geometric interpretations, for instance as wave or monopole-type solutions. It also provides a route to explore exotic or non-geometric aspects of M-theory, such as exotic branes, U-folds, and more novel sorts of non-Riemannian spaces.
