We show that the BRST cohomology of the massless sector of the Type IIB superstring on AdS5xS5 can be described as the relative cohomology of an infinite-dimensional Lie superalgebra. We explain how the vertex operators of ghost number 1,…

In this work, the DDF-like approach to the pure spinor cohomology is extended to the next ghost number level, the so called antifields. In a direct (supersymmetric) parallel to the bosonic string, some properties of the ghost number two…

A simple and self-contained treatment of the superstring BRST no-ghost theorem at non-zero momentum and arbitrary picture number is presented. We prove by applying the spectral sequence that the absolute BRST cohomology is isomorphic to two…

In this work, some aspects of the ambitwistor pure spinor string are investigated. The $b$ ghost is presented and its main properties are derived in a simple way, very similar to the usual pure spinor $b$ ghost construction. The heterotic…

The BRST operator cohomology of $N=2$ $2d$ supergravity coupled to matter is presented. Descent equations for primary superfields of the matter sector are derived. We find one copy of the cohomology at ghost number one, two independent…

The BRST cohomology group in the space of local functionals of the fields for the two-dimensional conformally invariant gravity is calculated. All classical local actions (ghost number equal to zero) and all candidate anomalies are given…

We provide an alternative compact expression for the 11D pure spinor b-ghost by introducing a new set of negative ghost number operators made out of non-minimal pure spinor variables. Using the algebraic properties satisfied by these…

We study the zero mode cohomology of the sum of two pure spinors. The knowledge of this cohomology allows us to better understand the structure of the massless vertex operator of the Type IIB pure spinor superstring.

The construction of the ghost number zero and one vertex operators for the 11D pure spinor superparticle will be revisited. In this sense, an alternative way of defining the ghost number one vertex operator will be given after introducing a…

We present the Y-formalism for the non-minimal pure spinor quantization of superstrings. In the framework of this formalism we compute, at the quantum level, the explicit form of the compound operators involved in the construction of the…

In the study of the Type II superstring, it is useful to consider the BRST complex associated to the sum of two pure spinors. The cohomology of this complex is an infinite-dimensional vector space. It is also a finite-dimensional algebra…

All solvable two-dimensional quantum gravity models have non-trivial BRST cohomology with vanishing ghost number. These states form a ring and all the other states in the theory fall into modules of this ring. The relations in the ring and…

{ This letter discusses the BRST cohomology of superparticles type I and II. It was used an extended super-space to construct $S0(9,1)$ superparticle actions that lead to super-wave functions whose spinor components satisfy $S0(9,1)$…

This paper considers the Free Differential Algebra and rheonomic parametrization of type IIA Supergravity, extended to include the BRS differential and the ghosts. We consider not only the ghosts lambda's of supersymmetry but also the…

We observe and study new non-linear global space-time symmetries of the full ghost+matter action of RNS superstring theory. We show that these surprising new symmetries are generated by the special worldsheet currents (vertex operators) of…

I present a toy model for the Berkovits pure spinor superparticle. It is a D=1, N=2 superparticle with no physical degrees of freedom. We study the cohomology in various ways, in particular finding an explicit expression for the `b'-field.…

In this paper we extend to the case of IIB superstring sigma models the method proposed in hep-th/10023500 to derive the pure spinor approach for type IIA sigma models. In particular, starting from the (Free) Differential Algebra and…

(Talk presented at the 1992 ICTP summer workshop in high energy physics and cosmology) The BRST cohomology ring for $(p,q)$ models coupled to gravity is discussed. In addition to the generators of the ghost number zero ring, the existence…

In this work, a particular BRST-exact class of deformations of the b ghost in the non-minimal pure spinor formalism is investigated and the impact of this construction in the $\mathcal{N}=2$ $\hat{c}=3$ topological string algebra is…

The BRST algebra of supergravity is characterized by two different bilinears of the commuting supersymmetry ghosts: a vector $\gamma^\mu$ and a scalar $\phi$, the latter valued in the Yang-Mills Lie algebra. We observe that under BRST…
