In a previous paper we showed that bracket relations uniquely fix the tree-level bosonic string $S$-matrix for $N\leq 26$ particle scattering. In this note we extend the proof to $N$-particle scattering for all $N$.
In this work we report on recent progress in the calculation of open superstring scattering amplitudes, at tree level, with more than four external massless states. We also report on the corresponding terms in the low energy effective…
We present the 3- and 4-point tree-level scattering amplitudes involving first-massive states in closed Type IIB superstring theory, computed in the Minkowski vacuum. In particular, the 3-point amplitudes are computed for all possible…
In this paper we consider tree-level scattering in the minimal N=4 topological string and show that a large class of N-point functions can be recast in terms of corresponding amplitudes in the (1,k) minimal bosonic string. This suggests a…
We derive boundary states which describe configurations of multiple parallel branes with arbitrary open string states interactions in bosonic string theory. This is obtained by a careful discussion of the factorization of open/closed string…
We explicitly compute the (NS) sector conventional type-I superstring tree-level amplitudes at five points after compactifying to 4-D, express the QFT building block in the helicity basis, and give several attempts towards arbitrary $n$…
We compute scattering amplitudes of leading Regge trajectory states in open superstring theories. Highest spin states at mass level n with spin s=n+1 for bosons and s=n+1/2 for fermions are generated by particularly simple vertex operators.…
We compute directly in covariant formalism various four point massive scalar amplitudes in bosonic string with scalars up to level 11. The most ``difficult'' amplitude we consider is four identical scalars at level 4, i.e. the first non…
We calculate high energy massive scattering amplitudes of closed bosonic string compactified on the torus. For each fixed mass level with given quantized and winding momenta ((m/R),(1/2)nR), we obtain infinite linear relations among high…
We identify spacetime symmetry charges of the bosonic sector of 10D superstring theory from an infinite number of zero-norm states (ZNS) in the old covariant first quantized string spectrum. We give evidences to support this identification.…
We calculate some tree level scattering amplitudes for a generalization of the protostring, which is a novel string model implied by the simplest string bit models. These bit models produce a lightcone worldsheet which supports $s$ integer…
We compute the scattering amplitudes of four massless states for chiral (closed) bosonic and type II superstrings using the Kawai-Lewellen-Tye ($KLT$) factorization method. The amplitude in the chiral bosonic case is identical to a field…
We study bosonic closed string scattering amplitudes in the high-energy limit. We find that the methods of decoupling of high-energy zero-norm states and the high-energy Virasoro constraints, which were adopted in the previous works to…
We study the correspondence between the linear matrix model and the interacting nonlinear string theory. Starting from the simple matrix harmonic oscillator states, we derive in a direct way scattering amplitudes of 2-dimensional strings,…
Computing the renormalized masses and S-matrix elements in string theory, involving states whose masses are not protected from quantum corrections, requires defining off-shell amplitude with certain factorization properties. While in the…
In the present paper we consider quantum theories obtained by quantization of classical theories with first-class constraints assuming that these constraints form a Lie algebra. We show that in this case, one can construct physical…
We extend our analysis of the soft behaviour of string amplitudes with massive insertions to closed strings at tree level (sphere). Relying on our previous results for open strings on the disk and on KLT formulae we check universality of…
We explicitly compute the Compton amplitude for the scattering of a photon and a (massless) ``electron/positron'' at tree level and one loop, in a four-dimensional fermionic heterotic string model. We comment on the relationship between the…
By using on-shell recursion relation of string scattering amplitudes (SSA), we show that all n-point SSA of the open bosonic string theory can be expressed in terms of the Lauricella functions. This result extends the previous exact…
We propose gauging matrix models of string theory to eliminate unwanted non-singlet states. To this end we perform a discretised light-cone quantisation of large N gauge theory in 1+1 dimensions, with scalar or fermionic matter fields…
