متن کاملON THE BACKGROUND INDEPENDENCE OF STRING FIELD THEORY III. Explicit Field Redefinitions
Given two conformal field theories related to each other by a marginal perturbation, and string field theories constructed around such backgrounds, we show how to construct explicit redefinition of string fields which relate these two string field theories. The analysis is carried out completely for quadratic and cubic terms in the action. Although a general proof of existence of field redefini...
متن کاملQuantum Background Independence in String Theory
Not only in physical string theories, but also in some highly simplified situations, background independence has been difficult to understand. It is argued that the “holomorphic anomaly” of Bershadsky, Cecotti, Ooguri, and Vafa gives a fundamental explanation of some of the problems. Moreover, their anomaly equation can be interpreted in terms of a rather peculiar quantum version of background ...
متن کاملOn background-independent open-string field theory.
A framework for background independent open-string field theory is proposed. The approach involves using the BV formalism – in a way suggested by recent developments in closed-string field theory – to implicitly define a gauge invariant Lagrangian in a hypothetical “space of all open-string world-sheet theories.” It is built into the formalism that classical solutions of the string field theory...
متن کاملOpen-Closed String Field Theory in the Background B-Field
In this paper, we study open-closed string field theory in the background B-field in the so-called α = p formulation. The string field theory in the infrared gives noncommutative gauge theory in the open string sector. Since this theory includes closed string fields as dynamical variables, we can obtain another string field theory in the same background through the condensation of closed string...
