A New Approach to Superstring Field Theory
Nathan Berkovits (IFT/UNESP, Sao Paulo)
TL;DR
This paper introduces a novel action formulation for open superstring field theory that avoids contact term issues and explores potential extensions to closed superstring theories.
Contribution
It presents a new approach to superstring field theory action construction and discusses its possible generalization to closed superstrings.
Findings
Avoids contact term problems in open superstring field theory
Proposes a potential framework for closed superstring field theory
Lays groundwork for further theoretical development
Abstract
I review the construction of an action for open superstring field theory which does not suffer from the contact term problems of other approaches. I also discuss a possible generalization of this action for closed superstring field theory.
