Free field theory as a string theory? [PDF]
Comptes Rendus. Physique, 2004 An approach to systematically implement open-closed string duality for free large N gauge theories is summarised. We show how the relevant closed string moduli space emerges from a reorganisation of the Feynman diagrams contributing to free field correlators.

Gravitational Scattering Amplitudes and Closed String Field Theory in the Proper-Time Gauge
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2018 We construct a covariant closed string field theory by extending recent works on the covariant open string field theory in the proper-time gauge. Rewriting the string scattering amplitudes generated by the closed string field theory in terms of the ...

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.

Asymptotic scalar field cosmology in string theory
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 Asymptotic (late-time) cosmology depends on the asymptotic (infinite-distance) limits of scalar field space in string theory. Such limits feature an exponentially decaying potential V ~ exp(−cϕ) with corresponding Hubble scale H ~ ϕ ̇ 2 + 2 V $$ \sqrt ...

Local string field theory [PDF]
XIVth International Congress on Mathematical Physics, 2006 We consider open bosonic strings. The non-interacting multi-string theory is described by certain free string field operators which we construct. These are shown to have local commutators with respect to a center of mass coordinate. The construction is carried out both in the light cone gauge and in a covariant formulation.

Closed string deformations in open string field theory. Part II. Superstring
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 This is the second paper of a series of three. We construct effective open-closed superstring couplings by classically integrating out massive fields from open superstring field theories coupled to an elementary gauge invariant tadpole proportional to an

Nonrelativistic string theory and T-duality
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 Nonrelativistic string theory in flat spacetime is described by a two-dimensional quantum field theory with a nonrelativistic global symmetry acting on the worldsheet fields. Nonrelativistic string theory is unitary, ultraviolet complete and has a string

String cosmology — Large-field inflation in string theory [PDF]
International Journal of Modern Physics A, 2015 This is a short review of string cosmology. We wish to connect string-scale physics as closely as possible to observables accessible to current or near-future experiments. Our possible best hope to do so is a description of inflation in string theory. The energy scale of inflation can be as high as that of Grand Unification (GUT). If this is the case,

On the classical string solutions and string/field theory duality [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2003 Based on the recently considered classical string configurations, in the framework of the semiclassical limit of the string/gauge theory correspondence, we describe a procedure for obtaining exact classical string solutions in general string theory backgrounds, when the string embedding coordinates depend nonlinearly on the worldsheet spatial ...

Physics Reports, 1989 Abstract We present an account of string field theory which aims to introduce the reader to the important concepts of the subjects as well as to aid access to the literature. Light cone string theory is briefly reviewed, but the emphasis is on the covariant approach exploiting world sheet BRST invariance to define string field derivations ...
