Dilaton Condensation in Cubic Open String Field Theory

چکیده

We construct an exact and finite classical solution in cubic open string field theory. The classical solution has a well-defined Fock space expression. Through the redefinition of a string field, the string field theory expanded around the classical solution can be transformed into the theory with a different coupling constant, where other backgrounds are unchanged. Therefore, the classical solution represents the condensation of the dilaton in cubic open string field theory. E-mail address: [email protected] E-mail address: [email protected]

Lectures on D - branes , tachyon condensation , and string field theory

These lectures provide an introduction to the subject of tachyon condensation in the open bosonic string. The problem of tachyon condensation is first described in the context of the low-energy Yang-Mills description of a system of multiple D-branes, and then using the language of string field theory. An introduction is given to Witten's cubic open bosonic string field theory. The Sen conjectur...

Normalisation of the Background Independent Open String Field Theory Action

It has been shown recently that the background independent open string field theory provides an exact description of the tachyon condensation on unstable D-branes of bosonic string theory. In this analysis the overall normalisation of the action was chosen so that it reproduces the conjectured relations involving tachyon condensation. In this paper we fix this normalisation by comparing the on-...

D - Branes , Tachyons , and String Field Theory

In these notes we provide a pedagogical introduction to the subject of tachyon condensation in Witten's cubic bosonic open string field theory. We use both the low-energy Yang-Mills description and the language of string field theory to explain the problem of tachyon condensation on unstable D-branes. We give a self-contained introduction to open string field theory using both conformal field t...

Dilaton Deformations in Closed String Field Theory

The dilaton theorem implies that the contribution to the dilaton potential from cubic interactions of all levels must be cancelled by the elementary quartic self-coupling of dilatons. We use this expectation to test the quartic structure of closed string field theory and to study the rules for level expansion. We explain how to use the results of Moeller to compute quartic interactions of state...

String Field Theory and Tachyon Dynamics

In this thesis we present some works done during my doctoral studies. These results focus on two directions. The first one is motivated by tachyon dynamics in open string theory. We calculate the stress tensors for the p-adic string model and for the pure tachyonic sector of open string field theory (OSFT). We give the energy density of lump solutions and attempt to evaluate the evolution of th...
