 Two-form scalar duality

Locally in four dimensions, a massless two-form is dual to one real scalar field. In signature $(-+++)$, the first-order density $-H^2/(12g_B^2)+{ϵ}^{\mu \nu \rho \sigma }{H}_{\mu \nu \rho }{\partial }_{\sigma }a/6$ gives $H^{\mu \nu \rho }=g_B^2{ϵ}^{\mu \nu \rho \sigma }{\partial }_{\sigma }a$. Eliminating $H$ in both terms produces $-g_B^2(\partial a{)}^2/2$, so the fixed-normalization kinetic coefficient is inverted. Global flux sectors and scalar periodicities need separate treatment.
