Solving Open String Field Theory with Special Projectors
Schnabl recently found an analytic expression for the string field tachyon condensate using a gauge condition adapted to the conformal frame of the sliver projector. We propose that this construction is more general. The sliver is an example of a special projector, a projector such that the Virasoro operator L0 and its BPZ adjoint L0 obey the algebra [L0,L0] = s(L0 + L0), with s a positive real...
متن کاملString Field Theory Projectors for Fermions of Integral Weight
The interaction vertex for a fermionic first order system of weights (1, 0) such as the twisted bc system, the fermionic part of N=2 string field theory and the auxiliary ηξ system of N=1 strings is formulated in the Moyal basis. In this basis, the Neumann matrices are diagonal; as usual, the eigenvectors are labeled by κ ∈ R. Oscillators constructed from these eigenvectors make up two Clifford...
متن کاملOpen string field theory without open strings
Witten’s cubic open string field theory is expanded around the perturbatively stable vacuum, including all scalar fields at levels 0, 2, 4 and 6. The (approximate) BRST cohomology of the theory is computed, giving strong evidence for the absence of physical open string states in this vacuum.
متن کامل8 Open - Closed String Correspondence in Open String Field Theory
We address the problem of describing different closed string backgrounds in background independent open string field theory: A shift in the closed string background corresponds to a collective excitation of open strings. As an illustration we apply the formalism to the case where the closed string background is a group manifold.
متن کاملOpen String Field Theory on Noncommutative Space
We study Witten’s open string field theory in the presence of a constant B field. We construct the string field theory in the operator formalism and find that, compared to the ordinary theory with no B field, the vertices in the resulting theory has an additional factor. The factor makes the zero modes of strings noncommutative. This is in agreement with the results in the first-quantized formu...
