Covariant Multiloop Superstring Amplitudes
Talk given at Strings 2004 In these proceedings, the multiloop amplitude prescription using the super-Poincaré invariant pure spinor formalism for the superstring is reviewed. Unlike the RNS prescription , there is no sum over spin structures and surface terms coming from the boundary of moduli space can be ignored. Massless N-point multiloop amplitudes vanish for N < 4, which implies (with two...
متن کاملOn Superstring and Supergravity Dimensions
In this paper we shall show how to construct two new superstring theories in dimensions 12 and 16 which satisfy the Lorenz symmetries in 4 dimensions after compactification but which satisfy different symmetry groups before compactification. The arguments are also applied to supergravity theory. We write the first few terms of these new supergravity actions. The new supergravity actions can be ...
متن کاملDecoupling Supergravity from the Superstring
We consider the conditions necessary for obtaining perturbative maximal supergravity in d dimensions as a decoupling limit of type II superstring theory compactified on a (10 − d)-torus. For dimensions d = 2 and d = 3 it is possible to define a limit in which the only finite-mass states are the 256 massless states of maximal supergravity. However, in dimensions d ≥ 4 there are infinite towers o...
متن کاملThe Twisted Mellin Transform
The “twisted Mellin transform” is a slightly modified version of the usual classical Mellin transform on L([0,∞)). In this short note we investigate some of its basic properties. From the point of view of combinatorics one of its most interesting properties is that it intertwines the differential operator, df/dx, with its finite difference analogue, ∇f = f(x)−f(x−1). From the point of view of a...
متن کاملQuaternionic Fourier-Mellin Transform
In this contribution we generalize the classical Fourier Mellin transform [3], which transforms functions f representing, e.g., a gray level image defined over a compact set of R. The quaternionic Fourier Mellin transform (QFMT) applies to functions f : R → H, for which |f | is summable over R+ × S under the measure dθ dr r . R ∗ + is the multiplicative group of positive and non-zero real numbe...
