It is shown that the string concept results naturally from considerations of gravitation. This paper describes a derivation of linearized general relativity based upon the hypotheses of special covariance and the existence of a…
The vector and scalar form factors relevant to the second-class current $\tau^-\to\pi^-\eta^{(\prime)}\nu_\tau$ processes are evaluated supplementing Chiral Perturbation Theory with the inclusion of resonances as explicit degrees of…
Given a real number beta>1, a permutation pi of length n is realized by the beta-shift if there is some x in [0,1] such that the relative order of the sequence x,f(x),...,f^{n-1}(x), where f(x) is the factional part of beta*x, is the same…
We study $(\sigma,\tau)$-derivations of a group ring $RG$ of a finite group $G$ over an integral domain $R$ with $1$. As an application we extend a well known result on derivation of an integral group ring $\Bbb{Z}G$ to…
We generalize the fractional Caputo derivative to the fractional derivative ${^CD^{\alpha,\beta}_{\gamma}}$, which is a convex combination of the left Caputo fractional derivative of order $\alpha$ and the right Caputo fractional derivative…
The original paper (hep-th/9209020) contains an early example of gauge mediated supersymmetry breaking motivated by string model building. In this erratum we point out an important misprint in the abstract of the published version (Phys.…
Two inequalities concerning the symmetry of the zeta-function and the Ramanujan $\tau$-function are improved through the use of some elementary considerations.
In these lectures we give a brief introduction to perturbative and non-perturbative string theory. The outline is the following: 1. Introduction to perturbative string theory 1.1 From point particle to extended objects 1.2 Free closed and…
The original version of this paper contains an error; when this is corrected the basic conclusion changes. A revised manuscript will be submitted shortly.
We consider the AdS/CFT correspondence between the beta-deformed supersymmetric gauge theory and the type IIB string theory on the Lunin-Maldacena background. Guided by gauge theory results, we modify and extend the supergravity solution of…
This paper is a continuation of the paper by S.P.Novikov in Funct.Anal.Appl., v.24(1990), No 4, pp 196-206. String equation is by definition the equation $[L,A]=1$ for the coefficients of two linear ordinary differential operators $L$ and…
In the present article, we study Bell based Euler polynomial of order {\alpha} and investigate some useful correlation formula, summation formula and derivative formula. Also, we introduce some relation of string number of the second kind.…
The ratios $R_{\tau/P}\equiv \Gamma(\tau \to P \nu_\tau [\gamma]) / \Gamma(P \to\mu \nu_\mu[\gamma])$ ($P=\pi, K$) provide sensitive tests of lepton universality $\left|g_\tau/g_\mu\right|=1$ and are a useful tool for new physics searches.…
In this paper, a new approach to string dynamics is proposed. String coordinates are identified with a non-commuting set of operators familiar from free string quantization, and the dynamics follows from the Virasoro algebra. There is a…
Give a convenient new approach to obtain the algebraic constraints on tau functions of p-reduced KP with the constraints of string equation. The classical results about algebraic constraints on associated tau function are included.
We explore the possibilities for scaling violation in gauge theories that have string duals. Like in perturbative QCD, short-distance behaviour yields logarithms that violate the scaling.
We study oscillating string solutions in the Klebanov-Witten and its non-Abelian T-dual background dualised along an SU(2) isometry. We find the string energy as the function of oscillation number and angular momentum. We show that for a…
I consider a three-dimensional string theory whose action, besides the standard area term, contains one of the form $\int_{\Sigma} \epsilon_{\mu\nu\sigma} X^{\mu} d X^{\nu} \wedge d X^{\sigma}$. In the case of closed strings this extra term…
For a given permutation $\tau$, let $P_N^{\tau}$ be the uniform probability distribution on the set of $N$-element permutations $\sigma$ that avoid the pattern $\tau$. For $\tau=\mu_k:=123\cdots k$, we consider $P_N^{\mu_k}(\sigma_I=J)$…
The first part is an introduction to conformal field theory and string perturbation theory. The second part deals with the search for a deeper answer to the question posed in the title. Contents: 1. Conformal Field Theory 2. String Theory…
