Strings with Discrete Target Space
We investigate the field theory of strings having as a target space an arbitrary discrete onedimensional manifold. The existence of the continuum limit is guaranteed if the target space is a Dynkin diagram of a simply laced Lie algebra or its affine extension. In this case the theory can be mapped onto the theory of strings embedded in the infinite discrete line ZZ which is the target space of ...

متن کاملStrings in Discrete and Continuous Target Spaces: A Comparison
We find the precise relationship between the loop gas method and the matrix quantum mechanics approach to two-dimensional string theory. The two systems are distinguished by different target spaces (ZZ and IR, respectively) as far as observables are concerned. We argue that target space loop correlators should coincide in the two models and demonstrate this for a number of examples. As a conseq...
متن کاملFeynman rules for string field theories with discrete target space
We derive a minimal set of Feynman rules for the loop amplitudes in unitary models of closed strings, whose target space is a simply laced (extended) Dynkin diagram. The string field Feynman graphs are composed of propagators, vertices (including tadpoles) of all topologies, and leg factors for the macroscopic loops. A vertex of given topology factorizes into a fusion coefficient for the matter...
متن کاملStrings , Noncommutative Geometry and the Size of the Target Space
We describe how the presence of the antisymmetric tensor (tor-sion) on the world sheet action of string theory renders the size of the target space a gauge non invariant quantity. This generalizes the R ↔ 1/R symmetry in which momenta and windings are exchanged, to the whole O(d, d, Z). The crucial point is that, with a transformation , it is possible always to have all of the lowest eigenvalue...
