Microscopic unitary description of tidal excitations in high-energy string-brane collisions [PDF]
The eikonal operator was originally introduced to describe the effect of tidal excitations on higher-genus elastic string amplitudes at high energy.

Amplitudes involving massive states using pure spinor formalism
Same amplitudes evaluated independently using RNS and pure spinor formalism are expected to agree. While for massless states, this fact has been firmly established, for massive states such an explicit check has been lacking so far.

Integrated massive vertex operator in pure spinor formalism
We construct the integrated vertex operator for the first massive states of open superstrings with (mass)2 = 1/α ′ in the pure spinor formalism of the superstring theory. This vertex operator is expressed in terms of the ten dimensional N = 1 $$ \mathcal{

Supermoduli and PCOs at genus two
We illustrate the relation between supermoduli integration and picture changing operators (PCOs) particularly concerning the role of vertical integration, in the context of superstring vacuum amplitudes, by an explicit comparison of different ...

Superstrings in Four Dimensions [PDF]
All of the work presented in this thesis evolved from the initial idea that strings, if they are to make sense, ought to exist in four spacetime dimensions.

Theta expansion of first massive vertex operator in pure spinor
We provide the covariant superspace equations that are sufficient to determine the complete θ expansion of the vertex operator of the open string massive states with (mass)2 = 1/α′ in pure spinor formalism of superstring theory.

Ambitwistor strings in six and five dimensions
Ambitwistor strings are chiral (holomorphic) strings whose target is the space of complex null geodesics, ambitwistor space. We introduce twistor representations of ambitwistor space in 6 and 5 dimensions.

A Note on the dS Swampland Conjecture, Non‐BPS Branes and K‐Theory
Abstract We point out that the de Sitter swampland conjecture would be falsified if classical fluxed Type IIA orientifold vacua with a single non‐BPS D7‐brane were indeed part of the string theory landscape. In other words, the dS swampland conjecture implies the cancellation of K‐theory charges on a compact space.

Cosmic necklaces in string theory and field theory [PDF]
PhDIn this thesis we investigate astrophysical phenomena which arise in models with compact extra dimensions, focussing on the cosmological consequences of strings which wrap cycles in the internal space. Embedding our strings in the Klebanov-Strassler
