We introduce a new set of noncommutative space-time commutation relations in two space dimensions. The space-space commutation relations are deformations of the standard flat noncommutative space-time relations taken here to have position…

We present technical details of fermionic observables computations in NSPT. In particular we discuss the construction of composite operators starting from the inverse Dirac operator building block, the subtraction of UV divergences and the…

We exhibit the superHiggs effect in heterotic string theory by turning on a background NS-NS field and deforming the BRST operator consistent with superconformal invariance. The NS-NS field spontaneously breaks spacetime supersymmetry. We…

The paper is devoted to the study of BRST charge in perturbed two dimensional conformal field theory. The main goal is to write the operator equation expressing the conservation law of BRST charge in perturbed theory in terms of purely…

Using the factorization approach of Gepner and Qiu, I systematically rederive the closed fractional superstring partition functions for K= 4, 8, and 16. For these theories the relationship between the massless graviton and gravi- tino…

We examine the modular properties of nonrenormalizable superpotential terms in string theory and show that the requirement of modular invariance necessitates the nonvanishing of certain Nth order nonrenormalizable terms. In a class of…

We describe in detail how the spectrum of a single anti-D3-brane in four-dimensional orientifolded IIB string models reproduces precisely the field content of a nilpotent chiral superfield with the only physical component corresponding to…

The BRST quantization of strings is revisited and the derivation of the path integral measure for scattering amplitudes is streamlined. Gauge invariances due to zero modes in the ghost sector are taken into account by using the…

We review the detailed structure of the large $N=4$ superconformal algebra, and construct its BRST operator which constitutes the main object for analyzing $N=4$ strings. We then derive the general condition for the nilpotency of the BRST…

After adding a pair of non-minimal fields and performing a similarity transformation, the BRST operator in the pure spinor formalism is expressed as a conventional-looking BRST operator involving the Virasoro constraint and (b,c) ghosts,…

We perform a BRST analysis of the N=2 superconformal minimal unitary models. A bosonic as well as fermionic BRST operators are used to construct irreducible representations of the N=2 superconformal algebra on the Fock space as BRST…

We show that it is possible to formulate the most general first-class gauge algebra of the operator formalism by only using BRST-invariant constraints. In particular, we extend a previous construction for irreducible gauge algebras to the…

An open bosonic string is considered with the aim to construct a general gauge invariant, being a polynomial of Fubini-Veneziano (FV) fields. The FV fields are transformed as 1-forms on $S^1$, that allows to formulate the problem in…

In this manuscript we consider the transformations of the oscillators of the bosonic fields of the superstring in terms of the fermions oscillators and vice versa. We demand the exchange of the commutation and anti-commutation relations of…

Brane-like states are defined by physical vertex operators in NSR superstring theory, existing at nonzero pictures only. These states exist both in open and closed string theories, in the NS and NS-NS sectors respectively. In this paper we…

We construct a class of quantum mechanical theories which are invariant under fermionic transformations similar to supersymmetry transformations. The generators of the transformations in this case, however, satisfy a BRST-like algebra.

Nonrelativistic string theory is a self-contained corner of string theory, with its string spectrum enjoying a Galilean-invariant dispersion relation. This theory is unitary and ultraviolet complete, and can be studied from first…

We construct a class of nilpotent operators using the BRST current and ghost fields in superstring theory. The operator can be realized in cubic superstring field theory as a kinetic operator in the background of an identity-based solution.…

This article, which is a review with substantial original material, is meant to offer a comprehensive description of the superfield representations of the BRST and anti-BRST algebras and their applications to some field-theoretic topics.…

In this paper, to solve the invariant subspace problem, contraction operators are classified into three classes ; (Case 1) completely non-unitary contractions with a non-trivial algebraic element, (Case 2) completely non-unitary…
