We propose a generalized left-handed (chiral) gauge choice for the genus one Riemann surface, realized through a singular gauge transformation of worldsheet coordinates. The transformation predominantly affects the logarithmic non-zero…
We confirm the intuition that a string theory which is perturbatively infrared finite is automatically perturbatively ultraviolet finite. Our derivation based on the asymptotics of the Selberg trace formula for the Greens function on a…
Strings propagating along surfaces with Dirichlet boundaries are studied in this paper. Such strings were originally proposed as a possible candidate for the QCD string. Our approach is different from previous ones and is simple and general…
We calculate field theory loop amplitudes by string methods, applied to half-maximal 4-point one-loop graviton amplitudes. Infrared divergences are regulated similarly to soft-collinear effective field theory (SCET): new mass scales are…
The concept and the construction of modular graph functions are generalized from genus-one to higher genus surfaces. The integrand of the four-graviton superstring amplitude at genus-two provides a generating function for a special class of…
The Green's function for a hole moving in an antiferromagnet is derived analytically in the long-wavelength limit. We find that the infrared divergence is eliminated in two and higher dimensions so that the quasiparticle weight is finite.…

We show that the Green's function of a two dimensional fermion with a modified dispersion relation and short distance parameter $a$ is given by the Lerch zeta function. The Green's function is defined on a cylinder of radius R and we show…
We investigated relations among green functions defined in the context of an alternative strategy for coping with the divergences, also called Implicit Regularization. Our targets are fermionic amplitudes in even space-time dimensions,…
We present a general algorithm to compute off-shell, one-loop multigluon Green functions using bosonic string amplitudes. We identify and parametrize the regions in the space of moduli of one-loop Riemann surfaces that contribute to the…
We show how the multiloop bosonic Green function of closed string theory reduces to the world-line Green function as defined by Schmidt and Schubert in the limit where the string world-sheet degenerates into a $\Phi^3$ particle diagram. To…
We continue our investigation of the modular graph functions and string invariants that arise at genus-two as coefficients of low energy effective interactions in Type II superstring theory. In previous work, the non-separating degeneration…
The problem of diffraction of a waveguide mode by a thin Neumann screen is considered. The incident mode is assumed to have frequency close to the cut-off. The problem is reduced to a propagation problem on a branched surface and then is…
In this paper, we study the dynamics of degenerating sequences of rational maps on Riemann sphere $\hat{\mathbb{C}}$ using $\mathbb{R}$-trees. Given a sequence of degenerating rational maps, we give two constructions for limiting dynamics…
A Green's function formalism is used to calculate the spectrum of localized modes of an impurity layer implanted within a ferromagnetic thin film. The equations of motion for the Green's functions are determined in the framework of the…
Based on the generating functional method with an external source function, a useful constraint on the source function is proposed for analyzing the one- and two-loop world-line Green functions. The constraint plays the same role as the…
Closed string amplitudes at genus $h\leq 3$ are given by integrals of Siegel modular functions on a fundamental domain of the Siegel upper half-plane. When the integrand is of rapid decay near the cusps, the integral can be computed by the…

Few natural basic principles allow to extend Feynman integral over the paths to an integral over the surfaces so, that they coincide at long time scale, that is when the surface degenerates into a single particle world line. In the first…
