We consider the open string sigma-model in the presence of a constant Neveu-Schwarz B-field on the world-sheet that is topologically equivalent to a disk with n holes. First, we compute the sigma-model partition function. Second, we make a…

We investigate the use of the embedding formalism and the Mellin transform in the calculation of tree-level conformal correlation functions in $AdS$/CFT. We evaluate 5- and 6-point Mellin amplitudes in $\phi^3$ theory and even a 12-pt…

The fundamental ingredients that build the observables in conformal field theory are the spectrum of operators and the OPE coefficients, or equivalently, the two- and three-point functions of the theory. Recently an inversion formula…

Closed string field theory leads to a generalization of Lie algebra which arose naturally within mathematics in the study of deformations of algebraic structures. It also appeared in work on higher spin particles \cite{BBvD}. Representation…

We find marginal and scalar solutions in cubic open string field theory by using left-right splitting properties of a delta function. The marginal solution represents a marginal deformation generated by a U(1) current, and it is a…
