Two-loop world-sheet effective action

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-11-10 v1

Abstract

We are studying quantum corrections in the earlier proposed string theory based on world-sheet action which measures the linear sizes of the surfaces. At classical level the string tension is equal to zero and as it was demonstrated in the previous studies one loop correction to the classical world-sheet action generates Nambu-Goto area term, that is nonzero string tension. We extend this analysis computing the world-sheet effective action in the second order of the loop expansion.
