String and superstring theories; other extended objects (e.g., branes) in quantum field theory (81T30) Two-dimensional field theories, conformal field theories, etc. in quantum mechanics (81T40) String and superstring theories in gravitational theory (83E30)

Abstract: We study the dynamics of strings with non-zero winding number around T-duality defects. We deduce that the physics near the core of such non-geometric objects involves winding modes that are not captured by the supergravity approximation, and we argue that such corrections are T-dual to the modes responsible for quantum corrections of semi-flat elliptic metrics. We furthermore construct a solution of double field theory that captures part of such near-core physics.
