T-duality transformation of gauged linear sigma model with F-term. (English) Zbl 1325.81143

Summary: We develop the duality transformation rules in two-dimensional theories in the superfield formalism. Even if the chiral superfield which we dualize involves an F-term, we can dualize it by virtue of the property of chiral superfields. We apply the duality transformation rule of the neutral chiral superfield to the \(\mathcal{N} = (4, 4)\) gauged linear sigma model for five-branes. We also investigate the duality transformation rule of the charged chiral superfield in the \(\mathcal{N} = (4, 4)\) gauged linear sigma model for the \(A_1\)-type ALE space. In both cases we obtain the dual Lagrangians in the superfield formalism. In the low energy limit we find that their duality transformations are interpreted as T-duality transformations consistent with the Buscher rule.
