Cosmological solutions of the beta function equations for the background fields of the closed bosonic string are investigated at the one-loop level. Following recent work of Kostelecky and Perry, it is assumed that the spatial sections of…

Using string scattering amplitudes of open bosonic string on a single $D$-brane, we construct a local field theoretical action for tachyon fields. Cubic local interactions between various particles, belonging to the particle spectrum of…

In this paper, we perform a systematic analysis of tachyon condensation over string Newton-Cartan (NC) geometry by probing the background with non BPS $ Dp $ brane. We construct the \textit{finite} tachyon effective action for NC geometry…

The naive low energy effective action of the tachyon and the U(1) gauge field obtained from string field theory does not correspond to the world volume action of unstable branes in bosonic string theory. We show that there exists a field…

Cosmological implication of rolling tachyons is reported in the context of effective field theory. With a brief review of rolling tachyons in both flat and curved spacetimes, we study the string cosmological model with both tachyon and…

We show that under certain conditions, closed string tachyon condensation produces a topology changing transition from black strings to Kaluza-Klein "bubbles of nothing." This can occur when the curvature at the horizon is much smaller than…

Quantum theory of 2d gravity is examined by including a special quantum correction, which corresponds to the open string loop corrections and provides a new conformal anomaly for the corresponding $\sigma$ model. This anomaly leads to the…

We revisit the identity-based solutions for tachyon condensation in open bosonic string field theory (SFT) from the viewpoint of the sine-square deformation (SSD). The string Hamiltonian derived from the simplest solution includes the…

In addition to being a prime candidate for a fundamental unified theory of all interactions in nature, string theory provides a natural setting to understand gauge field theories. This is linked to the concept of "D-branes": extended,…

We study the decay of the unstable D-particle in three-dimensional anti-de Sitter space-time using worldsheet boundary conformal field theory methods. We test the open string completeness conjecture in a background for which the phase space…

Regarding the current status of the superstring theory, despite its fully developed contents of all interactions in nature, it is no doubt that unfortunately it lacks a well established early universe cosmology content, that is, the…

We reveal a novel mathematical structure in physical observables, the mass of tachyon fluctuation mode and the energy density, associated with a classical solution of vacuum string field theory constructed previously [hep-th/0108150]. We…

We consider $tt^*$ equations appearing in the study of localized tachyon condensations. They are described by various Toda system when we consider the condensation by the lowest tachyon corresponding to the monomial $xy$. The tachyon…

We consider a closed string field theory with an arbitrary matter current as a source of the closed string field. We find that the source must satisfy a constraint equation as a consequence of the BRST invariance of the theory. We see that…

We investigate the spatially inhomogeneous decay of an unstable D-brane and construct an asymptotic solution which describes a codimension one D-brane and the tachyon matter in boundary string field theory. In this solution, the tachyon…

We present a tachyon field, which simply connects to the calculus of the tachyon condensation. The tachyon field acts on any bare boundary state: the Neumann or the Dirichlet state, and generates the boundary state suggested by S.P. de…

Open string field theory in the level truncation approximation is considered. It is shown that the energy conservation law determines the existence of rolling tachyon solution. The coupling of the open string field theory action to a…

This is a brief review of vacuum string field theory, a new approach to open string field theory based on the stable vacuum of the tachyon. We discuss the sliver state explaining its role as a projector in the space of half-string…

We study the rolling tachyon condensate in the presence of a gauge field. The generic vacuum admits both a rolling tachyon, \dot{T}, and a uniform electric field, \vec{E}, which together affect the effective metric governing the…

We study global worldsheet anomalies for open strings ending on several coincident D-branes in the presence of a B-field. We show that cancellation of anomalies is made possible by a correlation between the t'Hooft magnetic flux on the…
