A set of physical operators which are responsible for touching interactions in the framework of c<1 unitary conformal matter coupled to 2D quantum gravity is found. As a special case the non-critical bosonic strings are considered. Some…

The quantization of a free boson whose momentum satisfies a cubic constraint leads to a $c=\ha$ conformal field theory with a BRST symmetry. The theory also has a $W_\infty $ symmetry in which all the generators except the stress-tensor are…

We present vertex operators for ambitwistor strings around generic Yang-Mills, gravity and NS-NS backgrounds. The requirement that vertex operators lie in the BRST cohomology of the worldsheet theory enforces the appropriate linear…

The ring structure of Lian-Zuckerman states for $(q,p)$ minimal models coupled to gravity is shown to be ${\cal R}={\cal R}_0\otimes {\bf C} [w,w^{-1}]$ where ${\cal R}_0$ is the ring of ghost number zero operators generated by two elements…

In this paper, we construct the nilpotent Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin($BRST$) charges of spinor non-critical $W_{2,s}$ strings. The cases of $s=3,4$ are discussed in detail, and spinor realization for $s=4$ is given explicitly. The $BRST$…

Motivated by Ooguri and Vafa, we study superstrings in flat R^4 in a constant self-dual graviphoton background. The supergravity equations of motion are satisfied in this background which deforms the N=2 d=4 flat space super-Poincare…

The full cohomology ring of the Lian-Zuckerman type operators (states) in ${\hat c_M}<1$ Neveu-Schwarz-Ramond (NSR) string theory is argued to be generated by three elements $x$, $y$ and $w$ in analogy with the corresponding results in the…

We review the BRST analysis of the system of a (super)conformal matter coupled to 2D (super)gravity. The spectrum and its operator realization are reported. In particular, the operators associated with the states of nonzero ghost number are…

We present an orthogonal basis of gauge invariant operators constructed from some complex matrices for the free matrix field, where operators are expressed with the help of Brauer algebra. This is a generalisation of our previous work for a…

We show that the associative algebra structure can be incorporated in the BRST quantization formalism for gauge theories such that extension from the corresponding Lie algebra to the associative algebra is achieved using operator…

The operator algebras of a new family of relativistic geometric models of the relativistic oscillator are studied. It is shown that, generally, the operator of number of quanta and the pair of the shift operators of each model are the…

We show that it is algebraically consistent to express some string field theory operators as inner derivations of the B-V algebra of string vertices. In this approach, the recursion relations for the string vertices are found to take the…

We consider correlation functions in Neveu--Schwarz string theory coupled to two dimensional gravity. The action for the 2D gravity consists of the string induced Liouville action and the Jackiw--Teitelboim action describing pure 2D…

We consider the formulation of two dimensional QCD in terms of gauge invariant bilocal operators (string field) which satisfy a $W_\infty$ algebra. In analogy with our work on the $c=1$ string field theory we derive an action and associated…

We classify all Rota-Baxter operators of nonzero weight on the matrix algebra of order three over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero which are not arisen from the decompositions of the entire algebra into a direct vector…

We replace our earlier condition that physical states of the superstring have non-negative grading by the requirement that they are analytic in a new real commuting constant t which we associate with the central charge of the underlying…

In this paper, we introduce the concepts of endomorphism operator, left averaging operator, differential operator and Rota-Baxter Operator, and we construct examples of these linear maps on associative algebras with a left identity, a…

We study the spectrum of $W_3$ strings. In particular, we show that for appropriately chosen space-time signature, one of the scalar fields is singled out by the spin-3 constraint and is ``frozen'': no creation operators from it can appear…

The W_3 algebra of central charge 6/5 is realized as a subalgebra of the vertex operator algebra V_{\sqrt{2}A_2} associated with a lattice of type \sqrt{2}A_2 by using both coset construction and orbifold theory. It is proved that W_3 is…

We canonically quantize closed string theory in the pp-wave background with a non-zero flux of the three-form field strength by using the covariant BRST operator formalism. In this canonical quantization, we completely construct new…
