Open string T-duality in double space
Abstract: The role of double space is essential in new interpretation of T-duality and consequently in an attempt to construct M-theory. The case of open string is missing in such approach because until now there have been no appropriate formulation of open string T-duality. In the previous paper [1], we showed how to introduce vector gauge fields $AN_a$ and $AD_i$ at the end-points of open string in order to enable open string invariance under local gauge transformations of the Kalb-Ramond field and its T-dual "restricted general coordinate transformations". We demonstrated that gauge fields $AN_a$ and $AD_i$ are T-dual to each other. In the present article we prove that all above results can be interpreted as coordinate permutations in double space.
