I investigate the Nambu-Goto and Polyakov strings, accounting for higher-derivative terms in the emergent action for the metric tensor which are classically negligible for smooth metrics but revive quantumly. Using the conformal field…

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…

We consider the metric perturbations around a stationary rotating Nambu-Goto string in Minkowski spacetime. By solving the linearized Einstein equations, we study the effects of azimuthal frame-dragging around the rotation axis and linear…

We explore the formation of cosmic string Y-junctions when strings of two different types collide, which has recently become important since string theory can yield cosmic strings of distinct types. Using a model containing two types of…

We examine and implement the concept of non-additive composition laws in the quantum theory of closed bosonic strings moving in (3+1)-dimensional Minkowski space. Such laws supply exact selection rules for the merging and splitting of…

We examine the relativistic Nambu-Goto model with Gauss-Bonnet boundary term added to the action integral. The system is analysed using an invariant representation of dynamical string degrees of freedom by complex Liouville fields. The…

Even though the Bohmian trajectories given by integral curves of the conserved Klein-Gordon current may involve motions backwards in time, the natural relativistic probability density of particle positions is well-defined. The Bohmian…

We study Cerenkov radiation from moving straight strings which glisse with respect to each other in such a way that the projected intersection point moves faster than light. To calculate this effect we develop classical perturbation theory…

The perturbative modes propagating along an infinite string are investigated within the framework of the gauge invariant perturbation formalism on a spacetime containing a self-gravitating straight string with a finite thickness. These…

A new approach to the study of nonrelativistic bosonic string in flat space time is introduced, basing on a holistic hamiltonian analysis of the minimal action for the string. This leads to a structurally new form of the action which is,…

It is shown how a string living in a higher dimensional space can be approximated as a point particle with squared extrinsic curvature. We consider a generalized Howe-Tucker action for such a "rigid particle" and consider its classical…

Starting with a Nambu-Goto action, a Dirac-like equation can be constructed by taking the square-root of the momentum constraint. The eigenvalues of the resulting Hamiltonian are real and correspond to masses of the excited string. In…

Time evolution of a circular cosmic string loop is investigated by numerically solving the field equations for the scalar and the gauge fields consisting of the vortex. It is shown that the result agrees with an analytic estimate based on…

A quantum theory is developed for the scattering of a nonrelativistic particle in the field of a cosmic string regarded as a combination of a magnetic and gravitational strings. Allowance is made for the effects due to the finite transverse…

It is well known that a straight Nambu-Goto string is an exact solution of the equations of motion when its end moves in a circular orbit. In this paper we investigate the shape of a confining relativistic string for a general motion of its…

We consider conserved currents in an interacting network of one-dimensional objects (or strings). Singular currents localized on a single string are considered in general, and a formal procedure for coarse-graining over many strings is…

In the present article, we derive the space-time action of the bosonic string in terms of geometrical quantities. First, we study the space-time geometry felt by probe bosonic string moving in antisymmetric and dilaton background fields. We…

We implement a proper-time UV regularisation of the Nambu-Goto string, introducing an independent metric tensor and the corresponding Lagrange multiplier, and treating them in the mean-field approximation justified for long strings and/or…

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…

We compute semi-classical corrections to the energy of rotating closed Nambu-Goto strings. We confirm the results obtained by means of the Polchinski-Strominger action. We also show that in this semi-classical approximation, the spectrum of…
