Event details
In the first part of this talk we will review Non-Abelian T-duality and the latest developments, which are mostly related to the supergravity limit of string theory. In the rest of the talk we will examine a large-level limit in an exact coset CFT, which is an equivalent formulation of the duality at the classical level. Taking the same limit in the partition function we hope to make statements about the quantum case.
