We outline the construction of type II superstring field theory leading to a geometric and algebraic BV master equation, analogous to Zwiebach's construction for the bosonic string. The construction uses the small Hilbert space. Elementary…

We clarify the relation between the vertex operators in type IIB matrix model and superstring. Green-Schwarz light-cone closed superstring theory is obtained from IIB matrix model on two dimensional noncommutative backgrounds. Superstring…

We give an explicit formula for a quasi-isomorphism between the operads Hycomm (the homology of the moduli space of stable genus 0 curves) and BV/$\Delta$ (the homotopy quotient of Batalin-Vilkovisky operad by the BV-operator). In other…

We study some low-lying physical states in a superstring theory based on the quadratically non-linear $SO(N)$--extended superconformal algebra. In the realisation of the algebra that we use, all the physical states are discrete, analogous…

We analyze the consistency of the recently proposed regularization of an identity based solution in open bosonic string field theory. We show that the equation of motion is satisfied when it is contracted with the regularized solution…

Physical states of the superstring can be described in light-cone gauge by acting with transverse bosonic $\alpha_{-n}^{j}$ and fermionic $\bar{q}_{-n}^{\dot{a}}$ operators on an $SO\left(8\right)$-covariant superfield where $j,\dot{a}=1$…

We show that the BRST cohomology of the massless sector of the Type IIB superstring on AdS5xS5 can be described as the relative cohomology of an infinite-dimensional Lie superalgebra. We explain how the vertex operators of ghost number 1,…

We derive the complete set of off-shell nilpotent and absolutely anticommuting Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST), anti-BRST and (anti-)co-BRST symmetry transformations for all the fields of the modified version of two (1+1)-dimensional (2D)…

We construct analytic solutions of open superstring field theory for any exactly marginal deformation in any boundary superconformal field theory when properly renormalized operator products of the marginal operator are given. Our…

We analyse the BRST cohomology of the Ramond sector of heterotic ambitwistor theory. We also write the free string field theory action and compute the supersymmetry transformations.

By conformally coupling vector and hyper multiplets in Minkowski space, we obtain a class of field theories with extended rigid conformal supersymmetry on any Lorentzian four-manifold admitting twistor spinors. We construct the conformal…

In this paper we discuss deformations of the BRST operator of the fermionic string. These deformations preserve nilpotency of the BRST operator and correspond to turning on infinitesimal Gravitino and Ramond-Ramond spacetime fields.

We characterize the dependence on doublets of the cohomology of an arbitrary nilpotent differential s (including BRST differentials and classical linearized Slavnov-Taylor (ST) operators) in terms of the cohomology of the…

The local, covariant, continuous, anticommuting and nilpotent Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) and anti-BRST symmetry transformations for all the fields of a (0 + 1)-dimensional spinning relativistic particle are obtained in the framework…

The modular forms and weighted densities over the 1-dimensional manifold $M$ are transformed ``alike" under the group of linear fractional changes of coordinates, so the classifications of differential operators between spaces of (A)…

We construct the BRST operator for the nonlinear $WB_2$ and $W_4$ algebras. Contrary to the general belief, the nilpotent condition of the BRST operator doesn't determine all the coefficients. We find a three and seven parameter family of…

We completely accomplish the canonically covariant quantization of Ramond-Neveu-Schwarz (RNS) superstrings in the pp-wave background with a non-zero flux of the NS-NS antisymmetric two-form field. Here this flux is equivalent to a…

We analyze a particle constrained to move on a $(p,q)$-torus knot within the framework of supervariable approach and deduce the BRST as well as anti-BRST symmetries. We also capture the nilpotency and absolute anti-commutativity of…

We construct closed string vertex operators with various ghost numbers in addition to the conventional ones, using the Faddeev-Popov procedure for the gauge fixing of the conformal Killing group, from matter primary fields. We find that…
