Super - Poincaré Covariant Quantization of the Superstring
Using pure spinors, the superstring is covariantly quantized. For the first time, mass-less vertex operators are constructed and scattering amplitudes are computed in a manifestly ten-dimensional super-Poincaré covariant manner. Quantizable non-linear sigma model actions are constructed for the superstring in curved backgrounds, including the
متن کاملCovariant Quantization of the Superstring
After reviewing the Green-Schwarz superstring using the approach of Siegel, the su-perstring is covariantly quantized by constructing a BRST operator from the fermionic constraints and a bosonic pure spinor ghost variable. Physical massless vertex operators are constructed and, for the first time, N-point tree amplitudes are computed in a manifestly ten-dimensional super-Poincaré covariant mann...
متن کاملSuper - Poincaré Covariant Two - Loop Superstring Amplitudes
The super-Poincaré covariant formalism for the superstring is used to compute mass-less four-point two-loop amplitudes in ten-dimensional superspace. The computations are much simpler than in the RNS formalism and include both external bosons and fermions.
متن کاملOn the Berkovits Covariant Quantization of GS Superstring
We study the covariant quantization of the Green-Schwarz (GS) superstrings proposed recently by Berkovits. In particular, we reformulate the Berkovits approach in a way that clarifies its relation with the GS approach and allows to derive in a straightforward way its extension to curved spacetime background. We explain the procedure working explicitly in the case of the heterotic string. 1 E-ma...
متن کاملLectures on Covariant Quantization of the Superstring Nathan Berkovits
These ICTP Trieste lecture notes review the pure spinor approach to quantizing the superstring with manifest D=10 super-Poincaré invariance. The first section discusses covariant quantization of the superparticle and gives a new proof of equivalence with the Brink-Schwarz superparticle. The second section discusses the superstring in a flat background and shows how to construct vertex operators...
