We show that the supermembrane theory compactified on a torus is invariant under T-duality. There are two different topological sectors of the compactified supermembrane (M2) classified according to a vanishing or nonvanishing second cohomology class. We find the explicit T-duality transformation that acts locally on the supermembrane theory and we show that it is an exact symmetry of the theory. We give a global interpretation of the T-duality in terms of bundles. It has a natural description in terms of the cohomology of the base manifold and the homology of the target torus. We show that in the limit when the torus degenerate into a circle and the M2 mass operator restricts to the string-like configurations, the usual closed string T-duality transformation between the type IIA and type IIB mass operators is recovered. Moreover if we just restrict M2 mass operator to string-like configurations but we perform a generalized T-duality we find the SL(2,Z) non-perturbative multiplet of IIA.

In this note we explicitly show how the generalization of the T-duality symmetry of the supermembrane theory compactified in M9xT2 can be reduced to a parabolic subgroup of SL(2,Z) that acts non-linearly on the moduli parameters and on the KK and win
ding charges of the supermembrane. This is a first step towards a deeper understanding of the dual relation between the parabolic type II gauged supergravity in nine dimensions.
We dimensionally reduce the spacetime action of bosonic string theory, and that of the bosonic sector of heterotic string theory after truncating the Yang-Mills gauge fields, on a $d$-dimensional torus including all higher-derivative corrections to f
irst order in $alpha$. A systematic procedure is developed that brings this action into a minimal form in which all fields except the metric carry only first order derivatives. This action is shown to be invariant under ${rm O}(d,d,mathbb{R})$ transformations that acquire $alpha$-corrections through a Green-Schwarz type mechanism. We prove that, up to a global pre-factor, the first order $alpha$-corrections are uniquely determined by ${rm O}(d,d,mathbb{R})$ invariance.
We introduce spherical T-duality, which relates pairs of the form $(P,H)$ consisting of a principal $SU(2)$-bundle $Prightarrow M$ and a 7-cocycle $H$ on $P$. Intuitively spherical T-duality exchanges $H$ with the second Chern class $c_2(P)$. Unless
$dim(M)leq 4$, not all pairs admit spherical T-duals and the spherical T-duals are not always unique. Nonetheless, we prove that all spherical T-dualities induce a degree-shifting isomorphism on the 7-twisted cohomologies of the bundles and, when $dim(M)leq 7$, also their integral twisted cohomologies and, when $dim(M)leq 4$, even their 7-twisted K-theories. While spherical T-duality does not appear to relate equivalent string theories, it does provide an identification between conserved charges in certain distinct IIB supergravity and string compactifications.
We consider the ABF background underlying the eta-deformed AdS5 x S5 sigma model. This background fails to satisfy the standard IIB supergravity equations which indicates that the corresponding sigma model is not Weyl invariant, i.e. does not define
a critical string theory in the usual sense. We argue that the ABF background should still correspond to UV finite theory on a flat 2d world-sheet, implying that the eta-deformed model is scale invariant. This property follows from the formal relation via T-duality between the eta-deformed model and the one defined by an exact type IIB supergravity solution that has 6 isometries albeit broken by a linear dilaton. We find that the ABF background satisfies candidate type IIB scale invariance conditions which for the R-R field strengths are of the second order in derivatives. Surprisingly, we also find that the this background obeys an interesting modification of the standard IIB supergravity equations that are first order in derivatives of R-R fields. These modified equations explicitly depend on Killing vectors of the ABF background and, although not universal, imply the universal scale invariance conditions. Moreover, we show that it is precisely the non-isometric dilaton of the T-dual solution that leads, after the T-duality, to a modification of type II equations from their standard form. We conjecture that the modified equations should follow from kappa-symmetry of the eta-deformed model. All our observations apply also to eta-deformations of AdS3 x S3 and AdS2 x S2 models.
In this note we summarize some of the properties found in [1], and its relation with [2]. We comment on the construction of the action of the 11D supermembrane with nontrivial central charges minimally immersed on a 7D toroidal manifold is obtained (
MIM2).The transverse coordinates to the supermembrane are maps to a 4D Minkowski space-time. The action is invariant under additional symmetries in comparison to the supermembrane on a 11D Minkowski target space. The hamiltonian in the LCG is invariant under conformal transformations on the Riemann surface base manifold. The spectrum of the regularized hamiltonian is discrete with finite multiplicity. Its resolvent is compact. Susy is spontaneously broken, due to the topological central charge condition, to four supersymmetries in 4D, the vacuum belongs to an N=1 supermultiplet. When assuming the target-space to be an isotropic 7-tori, the potential does not contain any flat direction, it is stable on the moduli space of parameters. Moreover due to the discrete symmetries of the hamiltonian, there are only 7 possible minimal holomorphic immersions of the MIM2 on the 7-torus. When these symmetries are identified on the target space, it corresponds to compactify the MIM2 on a orbifold with G2 structure. Once the singularities are resolved it leads to the compactification of the MIM2 on a G2 manifold as shown in [2].
