Abstract

Description

We give a geometric characterization of the quasi axial-vector (Kiritsis-Obers) target space duality in the spirit of the bi-algebra (Klimcik-Severa) approach. We show that the sigma-models constructed by taking quotients have non-abelian chiral currents that obey "non-commutative conservation laws" and provide the criterion for a sigma-model to have a dual using the axial-vector procedure.
