String theory has emerged as the leading candidate for a unified field theory of all known forces. However, it is impossible to trust the various phenomenological predictions of superstring theory based on classical solutions alone. It appears that the crucial problem of the theory, breaking ten dimensional space-time down to four dimensions, must be ...

Homotopy Classification of Bosonic String Field Theory
, 2012We prove the decomposition theorem for the loop homotopy Lie algebra of quantum closed string field theory and use it to show that closed string field theory is unique up to gauge transformations on a given string background and given S-matrix.

Closed strings in open-string field theory
Physical Review Letters, 1987An explicit construction of closed-string states is given in terms of open-string oscillators acting on the open-string Fock vacuum. The closed-open-open coupling is computed for the graviton and agrees with the standard result. The closed string states are not annihilated by the Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin operator Q.

We review the construction of the free equations of motion for open and closed strings in 26 dimensions, using the methods of the Florida Group. Differing from previous treatments, we argue that the constraint L0 - 0 = 0 should not be imposed on all the fields of the closed string in the gauge invariant formalism; we show that it can be incorporated in

This thesis discusses several aspects of string field theory. The first issue is bosonic open-closed string field theory and its associated algebraic structure -- the quantum open-closed homotopy algebra. We describe the quantum open-closed homotopy algebra in the framework of homotopy involutive Lie bialgebras, as a morphism from the loop homotopy Lie

Conformal techniques in string theory and string field theory
Physics Reports, 1988Abstract The application of some conformal and Riemann surface techniques to string theory and string field theory is described. First a brief review of Riemann surface techniques and of the Polyakov approach to string theory is presented. This is followed by a discussion of some features of string field theory and of its Feynman rules. Specifically,
