Conformal defects from string field theory
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 Unlike conformal boundary conditions, conformal defects of Virasoro minimal models lack classification. Alternatively to the defect perturbation theory and the truncated conformal space approach, we employ open string field theory (OSFT) techniques to ...

Hyperbolic geometry and closed bosonic string field theory. Part I. The string vertices via hyperbolic Riemann surfaces [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 The main geometric ingredient of the closed string field theory are the string vertices, the collections of string diagrams describing the elementary closed string interactions, satisfying the quantum Batalian-Vilkovisky master equation.

Foliated field theory and string-membrane-net condensation picture of fracton order [PDF]
SciPost Physics, 2018 Foliated fracton order is a qualitatively new kind of phase of matter. It is similar to topological order, but with the fundamental difference that a layered structure, referred to as a foliation, plays an essential role and determines the mobility ...

Heterotic and bosonic string amplitudes via field theory [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 Previous work has shown that massless tree amplitudes of the type I and IIA/B superstrings can be dramatically simplified by expressing them as double copies between field-theory amplitudes and scalar disk/sphere integrals, the latter containing all the ...

Experimental string field theory [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2003 We develop efficient algorithms for level-truncation computations in open bosonic string field theory. We determine the classical action in the universal subspace to level (18,54) and apply this knowledge to numerical evaluations of the tachyon condensate string field. We obtain two main sets of results.

Mapping between Witten and lightcone string field theories
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 We propose a transformation between the off-shell field variables of Witten’s open bosonic string field theory and the traditional lightcone string field theory of Kaku and Kikkawa, based on Mandelstam’s interacting string picture.

String theory or field theory? [PDF]
Physics-Uspekhi, 2002 The status of string theory is reviewed, and major recent developments - especially those in going beyond perturbation theory in the string theory and quantum field theory frameworks - are discussed. This analysis helps better understand the role and place of string theory in the modern picture of the physical world.

Aspects of Nonrelativistic Strings
Frontiers in Physics, 2022 We review recent developments on nonrelativistic string theory. In flat spacetime, the theory is defined by a two-dimensional relativistic quantum field theory with nonrelativistic global symmetries acting on the worldsheet fields.

NONCOMMUTATIVE FIELD THEORIES AND (SUPER)STRING FIELD THEORIES [PDF]
Particles and Fields, 2002 In this lecture notes we explain and discuss some ideas concerning noncommutative geometry in general, as well as noncommutative field theories and string field theories. We consider noncommutative quantum field theories emphasizing an issue of their renormalizability and the UV/IR mixing. Sen's conjectures on open string tachyon condensation and their
