String Field Theory: Formulation and Analytic Solutions
Category
FP7 Project with U.S. partner
Short name and number
SFT (219547)
Area
No theme specific
Description
String theory is currently the most promising candidate for a unified theory of nature. It is very important to understand both perturbative and non-perturbative aspects of the theory. String field theory is a natural framework for defining string theory non-perturbatively. Following the recent analytic progress in this field, I propose to investigate analytical solutions representing lumps and multiple D-branes in open (bosonic and supersymmetric) string field theories.
