The Pure Spinor Formulation of Superstrings

High Energy Physics - Theory 2010-11-30 v1

Abstract

In this lectures we outline the construction of pure spinor superstrings. We consider both the open and closed pure spinor superstrings in critical and noncritical dimensions and on flat and curved target spaces with RR flux. We exhibit the integrability properties of pure spinor superstrings on curved backgrounds with RR fluxes.
