ON THE NONPERTURBATIVE CONSISTENCY OF d = 2 STRING THEORY
An infinite number of distinct d = 1 matrix models reproduce the perturbation theory of d = 2 string theory. Due to constraints of causality, however, we argue that none of the existing constructions gives a consistent nonperturbative definition of the d = 2 string. Electronic address: [email protected] The search for a nonperturbative formulation of string theory remains a key open probl...
متن کاملNonperturbative Superpotentials in String Theory
We describe a class of 4d N=1 compactifications of the SO(32) heterotic/type I string theory which are destabilized by nonperturbatively generated superpotentials. In the type I description, the destabilizing superpotential is generated by a one instanton effect or gaugino condensation in a nonperturbative SU(2) gauge group. The dual, heterotic description involves destabilization due to worlds...
متن کاملNonperturbative decoupling and effective field theory.
We examine recent claims that nonperturbative effects can prevent the decoupling of a heavy fermion whose mass arises from a Yukawa coupling to a scalar field. We show that in weakly coupled, four dimensional models such as the standard model with heavy mirror fermions the effects of the heavy fermions can always be accounted for by local operators involving light fields. We contrast this with ...
متن کاملOn Nonperturbative Solutions of Superstring Field Theory
Nonperturbative solutions to the nonlinear field equations in the NS sector of cubic as well as nonpolynomial superstring field theory can be obtained from a linear equation which includes a “spectral” parameter λ and a coboundary operator Q(λ). We borrow a simple ansatz from the dressing method (for generating solitons in integrable field theories) and show that classical superstring fields ca...
متن کاملNonperturbative calculational method in quantum field theory
An approximate procedure for performing nonperturbative calculations in quantum field theories is presented. The focus will be quantum non-Abelian gauge theories with the goal of understanding some of the open questions of these theories such as the confinement phenomenon and glueballs. One aspect of this nonperturbative method is the breaking down of the non-Abelian gauge group into smaller pi...
