Recently the effective action for the 4-point functions in abelian open superstring theory has been derived, giving an explicit construction of the bosonic and fermionic terms of this infinite $\alpha'$ series. In the present work we…
The leading terms in the tree-level effective action for the massless fields of the bosonic open string are calculated by integrating out all massive fields in Witten's cubic string field theory. In both the abelian and nonabelian theories,…
The conventional S-matrix approach to the (tree level) open string low energy effective lagrangian assumes that, in order to obtain all its bosonic ${\alpha'}^N$ order terms, it is necessary to know the open string (tree level)…
We construct the derivative corrections to the four-point vertices in the abelian open string effective action to all orders in alpha'. The result is based on the structure of the string four-point function. Supersymmnetry of these vertices…
Recently the construction of the non-abelian effective D-brane action was performed through order $\alpha'{}^3$ including the terms quadratic in the gauginos. This result can be tested by calculating the spectrum in the presence of constant…
Recently, a proposal for the full non-abelian open superstring effective action through ${\cal O}(\alpha'{}^3)$ has been formulated in {\tt hep-th/0108169}. We test this result by calculating the spectrum in the presence of constant…
We compute the massless five-point amplitude of open superstrings using the non-minimal pure spinor formalism and obtain a simple kinematic factor in pure spinor superspace, which can be viewed as the natural extension of the kinematic…
We derive the complete five-gluon scattering amplitude at tree level, within the context of Open Superstring theory. We find the general expression in terms of kinematic factors, and also find its complete expansion up to ${\cal…
An action for a prospect of a $p$-adic open superstring on a target Minkowski space is proposed. The action is constructed for `worldsheet' fields taking values in the $p$-adic field $\mathbb{Q}_p$, but it is assumed to be obtained from a…
An open superstring field theory action has been proposed which does not suffer from contact term divergences. In this paper, we compute the on-shell four-point tree amplitude from this action using the Giddings map. After including…
Recently a proposal for the non-abelian effective D-brane action was given through fourth order in alpha'. As the resulting expressions turned out to be quite involved, some checks of this result are called for. In the present paper we…
We calculate the effective action for nonabelian gauge bosons up to quartic order using WZW-like open superstring field theory. After including level zero and level one contributions, we obtain with 75% accuracy the Yang-Mills quartic term.…
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…
Connection between the partition function for the 2D sigma model with boundary pertubations and the low energy effective action for massless fields from in the open string theory is discussed. In the non-abelian case with a stack of $N$…
Long strings emerge in many Quantum Field Theories, for example as vortices in Abelian Higgs theories, or flux tubes in Yang-Mills theories. The actions of such objects can be expanded in the number of derivatives, around a long straight…
By integrating out the heavy fields in type II or heterotic string field theory one can construct the effective action for the light fields. This effective theory inherits all the algebraic structures of the parent theory and the effective…
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…
We calculate tree level scattering amplitudes for open strings using the NSR formalism. We present a streamlined symmetry-based and pedagogical approach to the computations, which we first develop by checking two-, three-, and four-point…
We determine higher-derivative terms in the open superstring effective action with U(N) gauge group up to and including order alpha'^4 as can be extracted from 4 boson, 2 boson - 2 fermion and 4 fermion string scattering amplitudes. This…
We use the pure spinor formalism to obtain the supersymmetric massless five-point amplitude at tree-level in a streamlined fashion. We also prove the equivalence of an OPE identity in string theory with a subset of the…
