Showing papers on "Non-critical string theory published in 1982"
TL;DR: In this article, a supersymmetrical light-cone-gauge string action is presented, which provides a basis for understanding the previously-studied supersymmetric dual string theory as well as two new closed-string theories that have extended supersymmetry in ten dimensions, corresponding to N = 8 supersymmetrization in four dimensions.

TL;DR: In this paper, the relativistic particle theory was used to explain the theory of gravitation and the reduced phase-space of classical regular systems, as well as classical singular systems.
Abstract: Classical regular systems.- Classical singular systems.- The reduced phase-space.- Quantization of constrained systems.- The electromagmetic field.- Yang-Mills theory.- The relativistic particle.- The relativistic string.- Einstein's theory of gravitation.

TL;DR: In this article, a class of theories for which the Lorentz algebra closes only on the mass-shell, and which therefore cannot be written in a manifestly invariant form, is presented.
222 citations
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss some aspects of the theory of Zel'dovich and Vilenkin attributing the density perturbations needed to initiate the formation of galaxies to cosmic strings, in particular the question of whether closed loops can have the long lifetimes required.

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that if the metric becomes singular on the boundary, then Polyakov's quantized string theory has a saddle point, which leads to an off-shell Green function, the S-matrix of which is the standard dual model.
51 citations
TL;DR: In this paper, a comparison of the Monte Carlo Wilson loop data with weak coupling predictions and a careful error analysis is performed for string tension extraction from lattice gauge theories in 3 euclidean dimensions.
41 citations
TL;DR: In this paper, a self-consistent electric mass was introduced to eliminate all infrared divergences in the Yang-Mills theory at finite temperature using perturbation theory, and the dependence of the electric mass on temperature and coupling constant was analyzed.

TL;DR: By imposing a constraint ∫ g d 2 ξ = A on the auxiliary field gab, the authors reformulae Polyakov's string theory in such a way that the closed surface sector admits regular, finite action, stable classical solutions with positive definite quadratic fluctuations for all possible topologies.

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the Wilson action is unique in that it scales precociously as is usually accepted, or that there is additional structure in the Wilson string tension (and a larger value of the Λ-parameter).

TL;DR: An interesting relationship between Polyakov's (bosonic) string theory for closed surfaces without boundaries and the so-called Teichmuller spaces (of metrics on these surfaces) is pointed out in this paper.
Abstract: An interesting relationship between Polyakov's (bosonic) string theory for closed surfaces without boundaries and the so-called Teichmuller spaces (of metrics on these surfaces) is pointed out. This allows us to obtain i) the correct intrinsic structure of the theory, ii) the effective-action functional and iii) a generalization of Liouville's equation. Some connected problems are also discussed.
TL;DR: In this article, a complete set of conserved quantities with the help of the collective coordinate method for a closed supersymmetric string is constructed with respect to a given set of quantities.
TL;DR: In this article, the explicit relation between the gauge-invariant path-ordered operator (POO) and a string field in two dimensions has been studied and the coupling constant is proportional to 1/√ N c.
TL;DR: The relativistic transformation laws for force imply that a moving string, no matter how flexible, may exert a force perpendicular to its length as mentioned in this paper, which is not the case in our case.
