Green-Schwarz and pure spinor formulations of chiral strings [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 Bosonic and RNS chiral strings have been defined from a singular gauge fixing of the respective Polyakov and spinning string actions, enforcing, among other things, the finite nature of their physical spectra.

A New Approach to String Theory [PDF]
Universe, 2023 In the present paper, we consider quantum theories obtained through the quantization of classical theories with first-class constraints assuming that these constraints form a Lie algebra.

Fundamental Superstrings as Holograms [PDF]
, 2007 The worldsheet of a macroscopic fundamental superstring in the Green-Schwarz light-cone gauge is viewed as a possible boundary hologram of the near horizon region of a small black string.

WZW-like Action for Heterotic String Field Theory [PDF]
JHEP0411:038,2004, 2004 We complete the construction of the Neveu-Schwarz sector of heterotic string field theory begun in hep-th/0406212 by giving a closed-form expression for the action and gauge transformations.

M-Theory (the Theory Formerly Known as Strings) [PDF]
, 1996 Superunification underwent a major paradigm shift in 1984 when eleven-dimensional supergravity was knocked off its pedestal by ten-dimensional superstrings.

Are Strings Thermostrings? [PDF]
, 1998 In the method of thermostring quantization the time evolution of point particles at finite temperature kT is described in a geometric manner. The temperature paths of particles are represented as closed (thermo)strings, which are swept surfaces in space ...

Perturbative String Thermodynamics near Black Hole Horizons [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2015 We provide further computations and ideas to the problem of near-Hagedorn string thermodynamics near (uncharged) black hole horizons, building upon our earlier work JHEP 1403 (2014) 086. The relevance of long strings to one-loop black hole thermodynamics

Revisiting noninteracting string partition functions in Rindler space [PDF]
, 2016 We revisit non-interacting string partition functions in Rindler space by summing over fields in the spectrum. In field theory, the total partition function splits in a natural way in a piece that does not contain surface terms and a piece consisting of ...

Chiral closed strings: four massless states scattering amplitude [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2016 A bstractWe compute the scattering amplitudes of four massless states for chiral (closed) bosonic and type II superstrings using the Kawai-Lewellen-Tye (KLT ) factorization method.

D=5 holomorphic Chern-Simons and the pure spinor superstring
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 The physical states of D=5 holomorphic Chern-Simons theory correspond to on-shell D=10 open superstring states in the cohomology of q +, where q + is one of the 16 spacetime supersymmetry generators.
