We explicitly find the spectrum of the operators $M^{rs}$ and $\widetilde{M}^{rs}$, which specify the star-product in the matter and ghost sectors correspondingly. Further we derive the diagonal representation for the 3-string vertices.…
We establish that the open string star product in the zero momentum sector can be described as a continuous tensor product of mutually commuting two dimensional Moyal star products. Let the continuous variable $\kappa \in [~0,\infty)$…
In this paper we show that in the presence of an anti-symmetric tensor $B$-background, Witten's star algebra for open string fields persists to possess the structure of a direct product of commuting Moyal pairs. The interplay between the…
We consider the open superstring ending on a D-brane in the presence of a constant NS-NS B field, using the Green-Schwarz formalism. Quantizing in the light-cone gauge, we find that the anti-commutation relations for the fermionic variables…
Using the Moyal star product, we define open bosonic string field theory carefully, with a cutoff, for any number of string oscillators and any oscillator frequencies. Through detailed computations, such as Neumann coefficients for all…
In this paper, we recast the fermionic ghost sector of Witten's open bosonic string field theory in the language of noncommutative field theory. In particular, following the methods of hep-th/0202087, we find that in Siegel gauge Witten's…
A covariant quantization method is developed for the off-shell superparticle in 10 dimensions. On-shell it is consistent with lightcone quantization, while off-shell it gives a noncommutative superspace that realizes non-linearly a hidden…
The spin can be described in the star product formalism by extending the bosonic Moyal product in the fermionic sector. The fermionic star product is then the Clifford product of geometric algebra and it is possible to formulate the…
In this paper we study the midpoint structure of the algebra of open strings from the standpoint of the operator/Moyal formalism. We construct a split string description for the continuous Moyal product of hep-th/0202087, study the…
We extend some aspects of vacuum string field theory to superstring field theory in Berkovits' formulation, and we study the star algebra in the fermionic matter sector. After clarifying the structure of the interaction vertex in the…
The string theory on symmetric product describes the second-quantized string theory. The development for the bosonic open string was discussed in the previous work. In this paper, we consider the open superstring theory on the symmetric…
In this pedagogical mini course the basics of the derivation of the noncommutative structures appearing in string theory are reviewed. First we discuss the well established appearance of the noncommutative Moyal-Weyl star-product in the…
We present a closed formula for a family of star-products by replacing the partial derivatives in the Moyal-Weyl formula with commuting vector fields. We show how to reproduce algebra relations on commutative spaces with these star-products…
The Moyal star formulation of string field theory is reviewed. The various versions of the star product are compared and related to one another in a regulated theory that resolves associativity anomalies. A summary of computations and…
We construct a family of fermionic star products generalising the fermionic Moyal product. The parameter space contains the polarisations necessary to define a quantum Hilbert space. We find a star product of fermionic functions on sections…
We show that the D25 sliver wavefunction, just as the D-instanton sliver, factorizes when expressed in terms of half-string coordinates. We also calculate analytically the star-product of two zero-momentum eigenstates of $\hat{x}$ using the…
An analogue of the Moyal star product is presented for the deformed oscillator algebra. It contains several homotopy-like additional integration parameters in the multiplication kernel generalizing the differential Moyal star-product…
We consider a two-point spatial lattice approximation to an open string moving in a flat background with B field. It gives a constrained dipole system under the influence of a vector potential. Solving and quantizing this system recover all…
We explicitly compute up to the fifth mass-level the partition function of ten-dimensional pure spinor worldsheet variables including the spin dependence. After adding the contribution from the (x^{\mu}, \theta^{\alpha}, p_{\alpha}) matter…
Let $\cal R$ be an ordered vector space over an ordered division ring. We prove that every definable set $X$ is a finite union of relatively open definable subsets which are definably simply-connected, settling a conjecture from [5]. The…
