New Covariant Gauges in String Field Theory
A single-parameter family of covariant gauge fixing conditions in bosonic string field theory is proposed. It is a natural string field counterpart of the covariant gauge in the conventional gauge theory, which includes the Landau gauge as well as the Feynman (Siegel) gauge as special cases. The action in the Landau gauge is largely simplified in such a way that numerous component fields have n...
متن کاملOn String Field Theory and Effective Actions
A truncation of string field theory is compared with the duality invariant effective action of D = 4, N = 4 heterotic strings to cubic order. The three string vertex must satisfy a set of compatibility conditions. Any cyclic three string vertex is compatible with the D = 4, N = 4 effective field theory. The effective actions may be useful in understanding the non–polynomial structure and the un...
متن کاملEffective Action and Hawking Flux from Covariant Perturbation Theory
The computation of the radiation flux related to the Hawking temperature of a Schwarzschild Black Hole or another geometric background is still well-known to be fraught with a number of delicate problems. In spherical reduction, as shown by one of the present authors (W. K.) with D.V. Vassilevich, the correct black body radiation follows when two “basic components” (conformal anomaly and a “dil...
متن کاملD-brane effective field theory from string field theory
Open string field theory is considered as a tool for deriving the effective action for the massless or tachyonic fields living on D-branes. Some simple calculations are performed in open bosonic string field theory which validate this approach. The level truncation method is used to calculate successive approximations to the quartic terms φ4, (AAμ) 2 and [Aμ, Aν ] 2 for the zero momentum tachyo...
متن کاملGeometrising the Closed String Field Theory Action
We complete the set of string vertices of non-negative dimension by introducing in a consistent manner those moduli spaces which had previously been excluded. As a consequence we obtain a ‘geometrised’ string action taking the simple form S = f(B) where ‘B’ is the sum of the string vertices. That the action satisfies the B-V master equation follows from the recursion relations for the string ve...
