Amplitudes in Noncritical Dimensions and Dimensional Regularization

High Energy Physics - Theory 2011-05-27 v1

Abstract

We study how the dimensional regularization works in the light-cone gauge string field theory. We show that it is not necessary to add a contact term to the string field theory action as a counter term in this regularization at least at the tree level. We also investigate the one-loop amplitudes of the bosonic theory in noncritical dimensions and show that they are modular invariant.
