摘要

We propose a novel type of duality that connects a sequence of well-known theories with even-multiplicity scalar amplitudes: it relates the Yang-Mills theory coupled to a specific scalar matter sector to the nonlinear sigma model on a symmetric coset space, the (multiflavor) Dirac-Born-Infeld theory, and the special Galileon theory. The duality is manifested with the help of a covariant formulation of the classical equations of motion that features a contact quartic scalar self-coupling combined with propagation on a dynamical background of elementary or composite gauge fields. This is augmented with a set of constitutive relations that reflect the intrinsic or extrinsic geometry of the target space of the theory. The universality of the underlying geometric structure allows for an unambiguous mapping between different theories.
