We present an analytic construction of multi-brane solutions with any integer brane number in cubic open string field theory (CSFT) on the basis of the $KBc$ algebra. Our solution is given in the pure-gauge form $\Psi=UQ_\textrm{B}U^{-1}$…
We study properties of a class of solutions of open string field theory which depend on a single holomorphic function F(z). We show that the energy of these solutions is well defined and is given by integer multiples of a single D-brane…
We show that the action expanded around Erler-Maccaferri's N D-brane solution describes the N+1 D-brane system where one D-brane disappears due to tachyon condensation. String fields on multi-branes can be regarded as block matrices of a…

We investigate numerical solutions of bosonic open string field theory in some marginally deformed backgrounds, which are obtained by expanding the action around an identity-based marginal solution with one parameter. We construct numerical…
In this paper we present two solutions of open bosonic string field theory defined on D0-brane background that correspond to the change of the D0-brane position in the transverse space.
Existence of open string field theory solutions describing configurations of multiple space-filling D-branes has been a subject of numerous speculations for quite some time. In this talk we present some new results giving further support to…
We study a new set of identity-based solutions to analyze the problem of tachyon condensation in open bosonic string field theory and cubic superstring field theory. Even though these identity-based solutions seem to be trivial, it turns…
We present an exact solution of open bosonic string field theory which can be used to describe any time-independent open string background. The solution generalizes an earlier construction of Kiermaier, Okawa, and Soler, and assumes the…
We construct a system of bosonic closed string field theory coupled to a D-brane. The interaction between the D-brane and closed string field is introduced using the boundary state which is a function of constant field strength $F_{\mu\nu}$…
In this paper we present time dependent solution of the open bosonic string field theory describing the motion of the tachyon on unstable D-brane.
We consider the inhomogeneous decay of an unstable D-brane of bosonic string theory in a linear dilaton background in a light-cone frame. At the lowest level, the dynamical equation that describes this process is a generalisation (that…
In a previous paper [arXiv:1901.01681], we presented an analytic construction of multi-brane solutions in cubic open string field theory (CSFT) for any integer brane number. Our $(N+1)$-brane solution is given in the pure-gauge form $\Psi=U…
We show that the existence of a tachyon vacuum puts tight restrictions on the form of solutions to the equations of motion of string field theory. In particular, we demonstrate that every solution can be written as a - formal - gauge…
We construct analytic solutions of open superstring field theory in the Berkovits formulation using boundary condition changing operators under some regularity conditions, extending the previous construction in the bosonic string. We also…
In a previous paper [arXiv:1111.2389], we studied the multi-brane solutions in cubic string field theory by focusing on the topological nature of the "winding number" N which counts the number of branes. We found that N can be non-trivial…
In this paper we incorporate gauge fields into the tachyon field theory models for unstable D-branes in bosonic and in Type II string theories. The chosen couplings yield massless gauge fields and an infinite set of equally spaced massive…
We review the recent studies of tachyon condensation in string field theory. After introducing the open string field theory both for bosonic string and for superstring, we use them to examine the conjecture that the unstable configurations…
We show that any pair of classical solutions of open string field theory can be related by a formal gauge transformation defined by a gauge parameter $U$ without an inverse. We investigate how this observation can be used to construct new…
In this short note we give an example of the exact solution of the open bosonic string field theory defined on the background of $N$ coincided D0-branes. This solution leads to the change of the original background to the background where…
