On Continuous Moyal Product Structure in String Field Theory

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-11-07 v2

Abstract

We consider a diagonalization of Witten's star product for a ghost system of arbitrary background charge and Grassmann parity. To this end we use a bosonized formulation of such systems and a spectral analysis of Neumann matrices. We further identify a continuous Moyal product structure for a combined ghosts+matter system. The normalization of multiplication kernel is discussed.
