Combined fermionic and bosonic T-duality of type II superstring theory with coordinate dependent RR field

Abstract

We investigate effects of fermionic T-duality on type II superstring in presence of Ramond-Ramond (RR) field that has infinitesimal linear dependence on bosonic coordinate xμ. Other fields are assumed to be constant. Procedure that we employ for obtaining fermionic T-dual theory is Busher procedure, where we will consider two distinct cases. One, where action has not been T-dualized along bosonic coordinates and other where it has. By analyzing these two cases, their actions and T-dual transformation laws, we obtain some insight into how background fields transform and what are necessary ingredients for emergence of fermionic non-commutativity.
