In this paper we first address four point functions of string amplitudes in both type IIA and IIB string theories. Making use of non-BPS scattering amplitudes, we explore not only several Bianchi identities that hold in both transverse and…

We apply the prescription proposed in hep-th/0307197 for non-abelian expansion of S-matrix elements, to the S-matrix element of four tachyons and one gauge field in superstring theory. We show that the leading order terms of the expansion…

We calculate the disk level S-matrix element of one Ramond-Ramond, two gauge fields and one tachyon vertex operators in the world volume of non-BPS branes. We then find the momentum expansion of this amplitude and show that the infinite…

We analyse the condensation of closed string tachyons on the $C/Z_N$ orbifold. We construct the potential for the tachyons upto the quartic interaction term in the large $N$ limit. In this limit there are near marginal tachyons. The quartic…

In this paper we derive a class of contributions to all orders in $\alpha'$ to the effective action of D-brane-anti D-brane systems in Type II String Theory, considering an amplitude involving a closed-string Ramond-Ramond state and four…

We study the tree level scattering or emission of n closed superstrings from a decaying non-BPS brane in Type II superstring theory. We attempt to calculate generic n-point superstring disk amplitudes in the rolling tachyon background. We…

We construct the world-volume action for non-BPS D-branes in type II string theories. This action is invariant under all the unbroken supersymmetries in the bulk, but these symmetries are realised as spontaneously broken symmetries in the…

We analyse open string correlators in non-constant background fields, including the metric $g$, the antisymmetric $B$-field, and the gauge field $A$. Working with a derivative expansion for the background fields, but exact in their constant…

Recently a modification of the tachyon DBI action has been proposed in which the tachyon carries the internal CP matrix \sigma_1 and \sigma_2. In this paper, we find the momentum expansion of the disk level S-matrix element of four tachyons…

Open string field theory is considered as a tool for deriving the effective action for the massless or tachyonic fields living on D-branes. Some simple calculations are performed in open bosonic string field theory which validate this…

We compute the Boundary Superstring Field Theory partition function on the annulus in the presence of independent linear tachyon profiles on the two boundaries. The R-R sector is found to contribute non-trivially to the derivative terms of…

We study a systematic derivation of four dimensional $\mathcal{N}=1$ supersymmetric effective theory from ten dimensional non-Abelian Dirac-Born-Infeld action compactified on a six dimensional torus with magnetic fluxes on the D-branes. We…

We study the dynamics of a general scalar field, a tachyon or an ordinary scalar, in the presence of world-volume massless fields in the DBI effective theory by exploring their exact solutions. The obtained solutions indicate that the…

We discuss the effective action of tachyon in the two dimensional string theory at tree level. We show that already starting from the cubic terms the action is nonlocal and the usually assumed simplest cubic term does not give the correct…

The Tachyon-Dirac-Born-Infeld (TDBI) action captures some aspects of the dynamics of non-BPS D-branes in type II string theory. We show that it can also be used to study the classical interactions of BPS branes and antibranes. Our analysis…

We compute three and four point functions of the non-BPS scattering amplitudes, including a closed string Ramond-Ramond, gauge/scalar and tachyon in type IIA (IIB) superstring theories. We then discover a unique expansion for tachyon…

In the cubic string field theory, using the gauge invariant operators corresponding to the on-shell closed string vertex operators, we have explicitly evaluated the decay amplitudes of two open string tachyons or gauge fields to one closed…

By fixing the internal CP factor of tachyon and massless Ramond vertex operators in different pictures, we have shown that the internal CP factor of the disk level S-matrix elements of two fermions and odd number of tachyon vertex operators…

We compute correlation functions of closed strings in Misner space, a big crunch big bang universe. We develop a general method for correlators with twist fields, which are relevant for the investigation on the condensation of winding…

We evaluate the sphere level S-matrix element of two tachyons and two massless NS states, the S-matrix element of four tachyons, and the S-matrix element of two tachyons and two Ramon-Ramond vertex operators, in type 0 theory. We then find…
