Kappa-symmetry of superstring sigma model and generalized 10d supergravity equations

AA Tseytlin, L Wulff - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2016 - Springer
A bstract We determine the constraints imposed on the 10d target superspace geometry by
the requirement of classical kappa-symmetry of the Green-Schwarz superstring. In the type I …

Dual superconformal symmetry, and the amplitude/Wilson loop connection

N Berkovits, J Maldacena - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2008 - iopscience.iop.org
We show that tree level superstring theories on certain supersymmetric backgrounds admit a
symmetry which we call``fermionic T-duality''. This is a non-local redefinition of the fermionic …

Multiloop amplitudes and vanishing theorems using the pure spinor formalism for the superstring

N Berkovits - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2004 - iopscience.iop.org
A ten-dimensional super-Poincaré covariant formalism for the superstring was recently
developed which involves a BRST operator constructed from superspace matter variables …

ICTP lectures on covariant quantization of the superstring

N Berkovits - arxiv preprint hep-th/0209059, 2002 - arxiv.org
These ICTP Trieste lecture notes review the pure spinor approach to quantizing the
superstring with manifest D= 10 super-Poincare invariance. The first section discusses …

[HTML][HTML] Non-commutative superspace from string theory

J De Boer, PA Grassi, P Van Nieuwenhuizen - Physics Letters B, 2003 - Elsevier
Turning on background fields in string theory sometimes has an alternative interpretation as
a deformation of the target space geometry. A particularly well-known case is the NS–NS …

Pure spinor formulation of the superstring and its applications

N Berkovits, CR Mafra - Handbook of Quantum Gravity, 2023 - Springer
The pure spinor formalism for the superstring has the advantage over the more conventional
Ramond-Neveu-Schwarz formalism of being manifestly spacetime supersymmetric, which …

Superstrings in AdS

L Mazzucato - Physics reports, 2012 - Elsevier
This is a comprehensive review of the worldsheet techniques for the quantization of type IIB
superstring theory on the AdS5× S5 background, using the pure spinor formalism. Particular …

Ramond-Ramond cohomology and O (D, D) T-duality

I Jeon, K Lee, JH Park - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2012 - Springer
A bstract In the name of supersymmetric double field theory, superstring effective actions can
be reformulated into simple forms. They feature a pair of vielbeins corresponding to the …

Universal 1-loop divergences for integrable sigma models

N Levine - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 - Springer
A bstract We present a simple, new method for the 1-loop renormalization of integrable σ-
models. By treating equations of motion and Bianchi identities on an equal footing, we …
