We consider the sum of planar diagrams for open strings propagating on N D3-branes and show that it can be recast as the propagation of a closed string with a Hamiltonian H = H_0 - g_s N P where H_0 is the free Hamiltonian and P is the hole…
We construct a covariant open bosonic string field theory on multiple D-branes, which reduces to a non-Abelian group Yang-Mills gauge theory in the zero-slope limit. Making use of the first quantized open bosonic string in the proper time…
We study covariant open bosonic string field theory in lightcone gauge. When lightcone gauge is well-defined, we find two results. First, the vertices of the gauge-fixed action consist of Mandelstam diagrams with stubs covering specific…
We perform canonical quantization of the open Neveu-Schwarz-Ramond (NSR) superstrings in the background of a D-brane with the NS B-field. If we choose the mixed boundary condition as a primary constraint, it generates a set of secondary…

We construct non-relativistic string and p-brane actions in Newton-Cartan background using the limiting procedure from the relativistic string and p-brane action in general background. We also find their Hamiltonian formulations when…
The one-plaquette Hamiltonian of large N lattice gauge theory offers a constructive model of a $1+1$-dimensional string theory with a stable ground state. The free energy is found to be equivalent to the partition function of a string where…
We construct a string field Hamiltonian describing the dynamics of open and closed strings with effective target-space dimension $c\le 1 $. In order to do so, we first derive the Dyson-Schwinger equations for the underlying large $N$…
In earlier work, planar graphs of massless phi^3 theory were summed with the help of the light cone world sheet picture and the mean field approximation. In the present article, the same methods are applied to the problem of summing planar…
We construct the string field Hamiltonian for $c=1-\frac{6}{m(m+1)}$ string theory in the temporal gauge. In order to do so, we first examine the Schwinger-Dyson equations of the matrix chain models and propose the continuum version of…
In this note, we first explain the equivalence between the interaction Hamiltonian of Green-Schwarz light-cone gauge superstring field theory and the twist field formalism known from matrix string theory. We analyze the role of the large N…
We consider open strings ending on D-branes in the presence of constant metric, G, antisymmetric tensor, B and gauge field, A. The Hamiltonian is manifestly invariant under a global noncompact group; strikingly similar to toroidally…
In typical examples of the AdS/CFT correspondence, the world-sheet theory with holes in the presence of D-branes is assumed to be equivalent in a low-energy limit to a world-sheet theory without holes for a different background such as…
We investigate the holographic correspondence between (p+1)-dimensional ($0\le p\le 4$) SYM theories with 16 supercharges and superstring theories on the near-horizon limit of Dp-brane backgrounds. Following an approach based on the…
The open string ending on a D-brane with a constant B-field in a pp-wave Ramond-Ramond background is exactly solvable. The theory is controlled by three dimensionful parameters: alpha', the mass parameter (RR background times the lightcone…
We construct light-cone gauge superstring field theory in a pp-wave background with Ramond-Ramond flux. The leading term in the interaction Hamiltonian is determined up to an overall function of $p^+$ by requiring closure of the pp-wave…
System of a D-brane in bosonic string theory on a constant $B$ field background is studied in order to obtain further insight into the bulk-boundary duality. Boundary states which describe arbitrary numbers of open-string tachyons and…
We construct the cubic interaction vertex and dynamically generated supercharges in light-cone superstring field theory for a large class half-supersymmetric D-branes in the plane-wave background. We show that these satisfy the plane-wave…
This paper is devoted to the study of the Hamiltonian dynamics of string in non-relativistic D3-brane background. We discuss different gauge fixing functions and construct corresponding gauge fixed Hamiltonians.
We derive the commutation relations for open-string coordinates on D-branes in non-geometric background spaces. Starting from D0-branes on a three-dimensional torus with H-flux, we show that open strings with end points on D3-branes in a…
