Bosonic Fields in the String-like Defect Model
نویسنده
چکیده
We study localization of bosonic bulk fields on a string-like defect with codimension 2 in a general space-time dimension in detail. We show that in cases of spin 0 scalar and spin 1 vector fields there are an infinite number of massless Kaluza-Klein (KK) states which are degenerate with respect to the radial quantum number, but only the massless zero mode state among them is coupled to fermion on the string-like defect. It is also commented on interesting extensions of the model at hand to various directions such as ’little’ superstring theory, conformal field theory and a supersymmetric construction. 1 E-mail address: [email protected]

SOME POINTS ON CASIMIR FORCES
Casimir forces of massive ferrnionic Dirac fields are calculated for parallel plates geometry in spatial space with dimension d and imposing bag model boundary conditions. It is shown that in the range of ma>>l where m is mass of fields quanta and a is the separation distance of the plates, it is equal to massive bosonic fields Casimir force for each degree of freedom. We argue this equalit...
متن کاملSupersymmetry and gauge invariance constraints in a U(1) x U(1)'-Higgs superconducting cosmic string model.
A supersymmetric extension of the U(1)× U(1)′-Higgs bosonic superconducting cosmic string model is considered, where the action is constructed from scalar chiral and vector superfields. The chiral superfields are assumed to transform separately under the Abelian gauge groups, and the constraints imposed upon such a model due to renormalizability, supersymmetry, and gauge invariance are examined...
متن کاملWZW-like Action for Heterotic String Field Theory
We complete the construction of the Neveu-Schwarz sector of heterotic string field theory begun in hep-th/0406212 by giving a closed-form expression for the action and gauge transformations. Just as the Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) action for open superstring field theory can be constructed from pure-gauge fields in bosonic open string field theory, our heterotic string field theory action is const...
متن کاملFate of unoriented bosonic string after tachyon condensation
By a toroidal compactification with a vortex like configuration of tachyon fields, the unoriented bosonic strings in 26 dimensions is equivalent to 10 dimensional string theory with gauge group SO(32)× G where G has rank 16. The reduction from SO(8192) to SO(32) is induced by the action of non-abelian Wilson lines which twists the tachyon. The additional enhanced gauge symmetry G appears from c...
متن کاملاثرات کوانتومی خلأ برای یک ریسمان بوزونی جرمدار در حضور میدان پسزمینه
We study the Casimir effect for a Bosonic string extended between D-branes, and living in a flat space with an antisymmetric background B-field. We find the Casimir energy as a function of the B-field, and the mass-parameter of the string, and accordingly we obtain a B-dependence correction term to the ground-state mass of the string. We show that for sufficiently large B-field, the ground stat...
