Hidden Gravity in Open-String Field Theory

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-10-22 v1

Abstract

We clarify the nature of the graviton as a bound state in open-string field theory: The flat metric in the action appears as the vacuum value of an OPEN string field. The bound state appears as a composite field in the FREE field theory.
