String theory: an update
In this talk I would like to discuss some of the developments that took place in string theory over the last two years, after the previous ICHEP meeting that took place in Osaka. Of course, it is impossible to give a detailed account of everything that happened in the field. In fact, it is not even clear precisely what the field is. According to some people, “anything that appears on hep-th” is...
متن کاملUpdate on String Theory
The first part of this report gives a very quick sketch of how string theory concepts originated and evolved during its first 25 years (1968-93). The second part presents a somewhat more detailed discussion of the highlights of the past decade. The final part discusses some of the major problems that remain to be solved. 1.
متن کاملDEVELOPMENT IN STRING THEORY
The string theory is a fast moving subject, both physics wise and in the respect of mathematics. In order to keep up with the discipline it is important to move with new ideas which are being stressed. Here I wish to give extracts from new papers of ideas which I have recently found interesting. There are six papers which are involved: I ."Strings formulated directly in 4 dimensions " A. N...
متن کاملString Cosmology: an Update
A string cosmology scenario (“pre-big-bang”) postulates that the evolution of the Universe starts from a state of very small curvature and coupling, undergoes a long phase of dilaton-driven kinetic inflation and at some later time joins smoothly standard radiation dominated cosmological evolution, thus giving rise to a singularity free inflationary cosmology. I report on recent progress in unde...
متن کاملAn Invitation to String Theory
These lectures are supposed to give a point of entry into that vast web of related ideas that go under the name “string theory”. I start with a more or less qualitative introduction to gravity as a field theory and sketch how one might try to quantize it. Quantizing gravity using the usual techniques of field theory will turn out to be unsuccessful, and that will be a motivation for trying an i...
