We show that any pair of classical solutions of open string field theory can be related by a formal gauge transformation defined by a gauge parameter $U$ without an inverse. We investigate how this observation can be used to construct new…

We propose an off-shell bosonic string action that removes the renormalization window constraint of [1]. To all orders in conformal perturbation theory, this action allows for deformations of the worldsheet theory by any primary or…

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 a family of kinetic operators in string field theory describing the theory around the closed string vacuum. Those operators are based on the analytical classical solutions of Takahashi and Tanimoto and are analogous to the pure…

In this note we present a real tachyon vacuum solution for open bosonic string field theory which does not require computing square roots of states in the wedge algebra. We study its algebraic structure, prove the equation of motion and…

In these talks we review some of the recent results on open strings and noncommutative gauge theories, starting from the early calculations of open strings in a constant electromagnetic background. We discuss both the neutral string and the…

It is pointed out that various types of cosmic string solutions that exist in nonsupersymmetric and globally supersymmetric theories, such as D-type gauge strings, F-type global and gauge strings, and superconducting Witten strings, also…

We show that, given a classical solution of the heterotic string theory which is independent of $d$ of the space time directions, and for which the gauge field configuration lies in a subgroup that commutes with $p$ of the $U(1)$ generators…

We construct analytic solutions of open bosonic string field theory for any exactly marginal deformation in any boundary conformal field theory when properly renormalized operator products of the marginal operator are given. We explicitly…

We present a series of new gauge invariant quantities in Witten's open string field theory. They are defined for a given set of open string states which satisfy the physical state condition around a classical solution. For known classical…

We study a consistent deformation of the cubic open bosonic string theory in such a way that the non-planar world sheet diagrams of the perturbative string theory are mapped onto their equivalent planar diagrams of the light-cone string…

We study classical solutions of vacuum version of Berkovits' superstring field theory, focusing on the (super)ghost sector. We first argue that the supersliver state which is annihilated by eta_0, though it has the correct quantum numbers…

We construct a manifestly SO(4) x SO(4) invariant, supersymmetric extension of the closed string cubic interaction vertex and dynamical supercharges in light-cone string field theory on the plane wave space-time. We find that the effective…

We describe the family of normalizable solutions in linearized open string field theory, defined by $Q\Psi_0=0$ ($Q$ is BRST charge) understood in the sense $<<Q\Psi_0,\Phi>>=0$ for an arbitrary string field $\Phi$. The solutions depend on…

We identify a string theory counterpart of the dilatonic Melvin D=4 background describing a "magnetic flux tube" in low-energy field theory limit. The corresponding D=5 bosonic string model containing extra compact Kaluza-Klein dimension is…

We review known exact classical solutions in (bosonic) string theory. The main classes of solutions are `cosets' (gauged WZW models), `plane wave'-type backgrounds (admitting a covariantly constant null Killing vector) and `$F$-models'…

We study exact string backgrounds representing a constant magnetic field background in heterotic string theory. These backgrounds are obtained by Kaluza-Klein reduction of a special class of plane wave solutions. For small values of the…

We present an exact solution of superstring theory that interpolates in time between an initial type 0 phase and a final phase whose physics is exactly that of the bosonic string. The initial theory is deformed by closed-string tachyon…

This review of bosonic string field theory is concentrated on two main subjects. In the first part we revisit the construction of the three string vertex and rederive the relevant Neumann coefficients both for the matter and the ghost part…

We present a class of analytic solutions of cubic superstring field theory in the universal sector on a non-BPS D-brane. Computation of the action and gauge invariant overlap reveal that the solutions carry half the tension of a non-BPS…
