Background independence of closed superstring field theory
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 Given a family of world-sheet superconformal field theories related by marginal deformation, we can formulate superstring field theory based on any of these world-sheet theories.

Recent developments in superstring theory. [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 1998 There have been many remarkable developments in our understanding of superstring theory in the past few years, a period that has been described as “the second superstring revolution.” In particular, what once appeared to be five distinct theories are now recognized to be different manifestations of a single (unique) underlying theory.

Soft theorems in superstring theory [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 We use insights from superstring field theory to prove the subleading soft graviton theorem for tree amplitudes of (compactified) heterotic and type II string theories for arbitrary number of finite energy NS (NSNS) sector external states but only one ...

A superstring field theory for supergravity [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 A covariant closed superstring field theory, equivalent to classical tendimensional Type II supergravity, is presented. The defining conformal field theory is the ambitwistor string worldsheet theory of Mason and Skinner.

Boundary superstring field theory [PDF]
Nuclear Physics B, 2001 Using the Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism we provide a detailed analysis of the NS sector of boundary superstring field theory. We construct explicitly the relevant BV structure and derive the master action. Furthermore, we show that this action is exactly equal to the superdisk worldsheet partition function as was recently conjectured.

Supersymmetry in open superstring field theory [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 We realize the 16 unbroken supersymmetries on a BPS D-brane as invariances of the action of the corresponding open superstring field theory. We work in the small Hilbert space approach, where a symmetry of the action translates into a symmetry of the ...

RECENT PROGRESS IN SUPERSTRING THEORY
The Ninth Marcel Grossmann Meeting, 2002 Superstring theory has continued to develop at a rapid clip in the past few years. Following a quick review of some of the major discoveries prior to 1998, this talk focuses on a few of the more recent developments. The topics I have chosen to present are 1) the use of K-theory to classify conserved charges carried by D-branes; 2) tachyon condensation ...
