Classical Interactions for Tensionless Strings
نویسنده
چکیده
Using an “action at a distance” formulation we probe the possible classical interactions for tensionless strings, (the T → 0 limit of the ordinary bosonic string.) We find Gμν and Bμν type interactions but no dilaton interactions. e-mail address: [email protected] e-mail address: [email protected], [email protected]

A Note on Tensionless Strings in M-theory
In this article we examine the appearance of tensionless strings in M-Theory. We subsequently interpret these tensionless strings in a String Theory context. In particular, we examine tensionless strings appearing in M-Theory on S, M-Theory on S/Z2, and MTheory on T ; we then interpret the appearance of such strings in a String Theory context. Then we reverse this process and examine the appear...
متن کاملMore on Supersymmetric Tensionless Rotating
Rotating IIB strings in AdS5 × S become ultra-relativistic, and hence effectively tensionless, in the limit of large angular momentum on S. We have shown previously that such tensionless strings may preserve supersymmetry. Here we extend this result to include a class of supersymmetric tensionless strings with arbitrary SO(6) angular momentum. We close with some general comments on tensionless ...
متن کاملSix-Dimensional Tensionless Strings In The Large N Limit
When N five-branes of M-theory coincide the world-volume theory contains tensionless strings, according to Strominger’s construction. This suggests a large N limit of tensionless string theories. For the small E8 instanton theories, the definition would be a large instanton number. An adiabatic argument suggests that in the large N limit an effective extra uncompactified dimension might be obse...
متن کاملContinuous spin and tensionless strings
A classical action is proposed which upon quantisation yields massless particles belonging to the continuous spin representation of the Poincaré group. The string generalisation of the action is identical to the tensionless extrinsic curvature action proposed by Savvidy. We show that the BRST quantisation of the string action gives a critical dimension of 28. The constraints result in a number ...
متن کاملOn the covariant quantization of tensionless bosonic strings in AdS spacetime
The covariant quantization of the tensionless free bosonic (open and closed) strings in AdS spaces is obtained. This is done by representing the AdS space as an hyperboloid in a flat auxiliary space and by studying the resulting string constrained hamiltonian system in the tensionless limit. It turns out that the constraint algebra simplifies in the tensionless case in such a way that the close...
