We compute semi-classical corrections to the energy of rotating open Nambu-Goto strings with and without masses at the ends, using methods from quantum field theory on curved space-times.

We compute semi-classical corrections to the energy of rotating Nambu-Goto strings with masses at the ends, using methods from quantum field theory on curved space-times. In the limit of large angular momentum, we recover the Regge…

We compute the spectrum of excitations of the rotating Nambu-Goto string with masses at the ends. We find interesting quasi-massless modes in the limit of slow rotation and comment on the nontrivial relation between world-sheet and target…

The low-energy effective action on long string-like objects in quantum field theory, such as confining strings, includes the Nambu-Goto action and then higher-derivative corrections. This action is diffeomorphism-invariant, and can be…

The effective action on long strings, such as confining strings in pure Yang-Mills theories, is well-approximated by the Nambu-Goto action, but this action cannot be exact. The leading possible corrections to this action (in a long string…

We show, by explicit calculation, that the next correction to the universal Luescher term in the effective string theories of Polchinski and Strominger is also universal. We find that to this order in inverse string-length, the ground-state…

We consider a quantized massless and minimally coupled scalar field on a circular closed string with a time-dependent radius $R(t)$, whose undisturbed dynamics is governed by the Nambu-Goto action. Within the semi-classical treatment, the…

We revisit the effective field theory of long relativistic strings such as confining flux tubes in QCD. We derive the Polchinski-Strominger interaction by a calculation in static gauge. This interaction implies that a non-critical string…

We calculate, using zeta function regularization method, semiclassical energy of the Nambu-Goto string supplemented with the boundary, Gauss-Bonnet term in the action and discuss the tachyonic ground state problem.

We calculate (using zeta function regularization) the Casimir energy of the rotating Nambu-Goto string with the Gauss-Bonnet term in the action and point-like masses at the ends. The resulting value turns out to be negative for all values…

I investigate the higher-derivative conformal theory which shows how the Nambu-Goto and Polyakov strings can be told apart. Its energy-momentum tensor is conserved, traceless but does not belong to the conformal family of the unit operator.…

Drummond had proposed four actions for Polchinski-Strominger effective string theories at order $R^{-6}$, where $2\pi R$ is the length of the (closed) string >. In \cite{covariant} it had been shown, based on covariance arguments, that only…

We study the low-energy effective action governing the transverse fluctuations of a long string, such as a confining flux tube in QCD. We work in the static gauge where this action contains only the transverse excitations of the string. The…

It is shown that all Polchinski-Strominger effective string theories are \emph{isospectral} to Nambu-Goto theory. The relevance of these results to QCD-Strings is discussed.

In the present paper we investigate classical dynamics of the Nambu-Goto string with the Gauss-Bonnet term in the action and point-like masses at the ends in the context of effective QCD string. The configurations of rigidly rotating string…

We investigate classical strings defined by the Nambu-Goto action with the boundary term added. We demonstrate that the latter term has a significant bearing on the string dynamics. It is confirmed that new action terms that depend on…

The concept of the quantized space-time of the formless finite fundamental elements is suggested. This space-time can be defined as a set of continual space-time coverings by simply connected non-overlapping regions of any form and…

Classical rotating closed string are folded strings. At the folding points the scalar curvature associated with the induced metric diverges. As a consequence one cannot properly quantize the fluctuations around the classical solution since…

We develop a semiclassical density functional theory in the context of quantum dots. Coulomb blockade conductance oscillations have been measured in several experiments using nanostructured quantum dots. The statistical properties of these…

Comparison of the oscillatory behavior of a gravitating infinite Nambu-Goto string and a test string is investigated using the general relativistic gauge invariant perturbation technique with two infinitesimal parameters on a flat spacetime…
