چکیده
We calculate the free energy, energy and entropy in the matrix quantum mechanical formulation of 2D string theory in a background strongly perturbed by tachyons with the imaginary Minkowskian momentum ±i/R (“Sine-Liouville” theory). The system shows a thermodynamical behaviour corresponding to the temperature T = 1/(2πR). We show that the microscopically calculated energy of the system satisfies the usual thermodynamical relations and leads to a non-zero entropy.

In this talk I will review the present status of inflationary cosmology and its emergence as the basic paradigm behind the Standard Cosmological Model, with parameters determined today at better than 10% level from CMB and LSS observations. I will also discuss the recent theoretical developments on the process of reheating after inflation and model building based on string theory and D-branes.

We study the behavior of matrix string theory in the strong coupling region, where it is expected to reduce to discrete light-cone type IIA superstring. In the large N limit, the reduction corresponds to the double-dimensional reduction from wrapped supermembranes on R10× S1 to type IIA superstrings on R10 in the light-cone gauge, which is shown classically, however it is not obvious quantum me...

The π 0 γγ vertex is used as an explicit example of the subtleties connected with the application of equation of motion within Chiral Perturbation Theory at the order O(p 6).

The theory of p-adic strings is reviewed along with some of their applications , foremost among them to the tachyon condensation problem in string theory. Some open problems are discussed, in particular that of the super-string in 10 dimensions as the end-stage of the 26-dimensional closed bosonic string's tachyon condensation.
