String Field Theory - Supersymmetric Covariant Open String Field Theories

Supersymmetric Covariant Open String Field Theories

There are two main constructions of supersymmetric extensions of Witten's cubic open string field theory. The first is very similar in form to its bosonic cousin and is known as modified cubic superstring field theory. The second, due to Nathan Berkovits is very different and is based on a WZW-type action.

Famous quotes containing the words open, string, field and/or theories:

    “In that open field
    If you do not come too close, if you do not come too close,
    On a summer midnight, you can hear the music
    Of the weak pipe and the little drum
    And see them dancing around the bonfire
    The association of man and woman
    In daunsinge, signifying matrimonie....”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    “... looped with the creep of varying light,
    Monkey-brown, fish-grey, a string of infected circles
    Loitering like bullies, about to coagulate....”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “The field of the poor may yield much food, but it is swept away through injustice.”
    —Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 13:23.

    “We do not talk—we bludgeon one another with facts and theories gleaned from cursory readings of newspapers, magazines and digests.”
    —Henry Miller (1891–1980)
