英文摘要：

We propose a new non-perturbative method to search for marginal deformations in level truncated open string field theory. Instead of studying the flatness of the effective potential for the marginal field (which is not expected to give a one-to-one parametrization of the BCFT moduli space), we identify a new non-universal branch of the tachyon potential which, from known analytic examples, is expected to parametrize the marginal flow in a much larger region of the BCFT moduli space. By a level 18 computation in Siegel gauge, we find an increasingly flat effective potential in the non-universal sector, connected to the perturbative vacuum and we confirm that the coefficient of the marginal field (lambda_SFT) has a maximum compatible with the value where the solutions stop existing in the standard Sen-Zwiebach approach. At the maximal reachable level, the effective potential still deviates from flatness for large values of the tachyon, but the Ellwood invariants stay close to the correct BCFT values on the whole branch and the full periodic moduli space of the cosine deformation is covered.

Large BCFT moduli in open string field theory

We use the recently constructed solution for marginal deformations by one of the authors, to analytically relate the BCFT modulus (lambda_BCFT) to the coefficient of the boundary marginal field in the solution (lambda_SFT). We explicitly find that the relation is not one to one and the same value of lambda_SFT corresponds to a pair of different lambda_BCFT 's: a "small" one, and a "large" one. The BCFT moduli space is fully covered, but the coefficient of the marginal field in the solution is not a good global coordinate on such a space.

BCFT and OSFT moduli: an exact perturbative comparison

Starting from the pseudo-${\cal B}_0$ gauge solution for marginal deformations in OSFT, we analytically compute the relation between the perturbative deformation parameter $\tildeλ$ in the solution and the BCFT marginal parameter $λ$, up to fifth order, by evaluating the Ellwood invariants. We observe that the microscopic reason why $\tildeλ$ and $λ$ are different is that the OSFT propagator renormalizes contact term divergences differently from the contour deformation used in BCFT

Scalar Soliton Quantization with Generic Moduli

We canonically quantize multi-component scalar field theories in the presence of solitons. This extends results of Tomboulis to general soliton moduli spaces. We derive the quantum Hamiltonian, discuss reparameterization invariance and explicitly show how, in the semiclassical approximation, the dynamics of the full theory reduce to quantum mechanics on the soliton moduli space. We emphasize the difference between the semiclassical approximation and a truncation of the dynamical variables to moduli. Both procedures produce quantum mechanics on moduli space, but the two Hamiltonians are generic…

The Tadpole Conjecture in the Interior of Moduli Space

We revisit moduli stabilization on Calabi-Yau manifolds with a discrete symmetry. Invariant fluxes allow for a truncation to a symmetric locus in complex structure moduli space and hence drastically reduce the moduli stabilization problem in its dimensionality. This makes them an ideal testing ground for the tadpole conjecture. For a large class of fourfolds, we show that an invariant flux with non-zero on-shell superpotential on the symmetric locus necessarily stabilizes at least 60% of the complex structure moduli. In case this invariant flux induces a relatively small tadpole, it is thus po…

涡旋、瞬子和膜

Vortices, Instantons and Branes

本文的目的是描述涡旋的模空间与瞬子的模空间之间的关系。研究了U（N）Yang-Mills-Higgs理论中的荷k涡旋，证明了非对易U（N）Yang-Mills理论中的k瞬子模空间的一个特殊Lagrange子流形与其模空间同构.这个子流形是瞬子模空间上的U（1）作用的不动点集，它使瞬子在平面内旋转。为了导出这种关系，我们提出了一个D-膜结构，其中涡旋的动力学由具有4个超荷的U（k）规范理论的Higgs分支描述，这是熟悉的ADHM规范理论的截断。我们进一步描述了一个模空间结构的半局部涡，在CP（N）和格拉斯曼σ模型，和非交换平面上的涡块。我们认为，涡旋和瞬子之间的这种关系是二维和四维量子场论所共有的许多定量相似性的基础。

Closed string deformations in open string field theory III: ${\cal N}=2$ worldsheet localization

In this paper, which is the last of a series of three, we first verify that the two open-closed effective potentials derived in the previous paper from the WZW theory in the large Hilbert space and the $A_\infty$ theory in the small Hilbert space have the same vacuum structure. In particular, we show that mass-term deformations given by the effective (two open)-(one closed) couplings are the same, provided the effective tadpole is vanishing to first order in the closed string deformation. We show that this condition is always realized when the worldsheet BCFT enjoys a global ${\cal N}=2$ super…

Twist Symmetry and Classical Solutions in Open String Field Theory

我们构造了开弦场论的经典解，这些解在普通的扭曲操作下不是不变的。通过对解的模空间的详细分析，证明了我们的解在模空间的边界处是非平凡的。修正的BRST算子的上同调和水平截断方法计算的CSFT势强有力地支持了我们的非平凡解对应于闭弦真空的事实。我们证明了非平凡解与Takahashi和Tanimoto发现的扭转偶解是等价的，并且在经典背景移动后开弦场论的扭转不变性仍然存在.

SFT on separated D-branes and D-brane translation

We discuss novel properties of the string field and the Open String Field Theory action arising in a system with multiple D-branes, then use the level truncation scheme to study marginal deformations and tachyon condensation in a system with two parallel but separated branes. We find string fields corresponding to D-brane decay combined with a finite change in the distance between the two D-branes. Using D-brane separation as a yardstick, we are able to continuously control the spacetime displacement of the D-branes and find that our solutions exist only for a finite range of this displacement…

The E8 moduli 3-stack of the C-field in M-theory

The higher gauge field in 11-dimensional supergravity -- the C-field -- is constrained by quantum effects to be a cocycle in some twisted version of differential cohomology. We argue that it should indeed be a cocycle in a certain twisted nonabelian differential cohomology. We give a simple and natural characterization of the full smooth moduli 3-stack of configurations of the C-field, the gravitational field/background, and the (auxiliary) E8-field. We show that the truncation of this moduli 3-stack to a bare 1-groupoid of field configurations reproduces the differential integral Wu structure…

Gauge-invariant observables and marginal deformations in open string field theory

The level-truncation analysis of open string field theory for a class of periodic marginal deformations indicates that a branch of solutions in Siegel gauge exists only for a finite range of values of the marginal field. The periodicity in the deformation parameter is thus obscure. We use the relation between gauge-invariant observables and the closed string tadpole on a disk conjectured by Ellwood to construct a map between the deformation parameter of the boundary conformal field theory and the parameter labeling classical solutions of open string field theory. We evaluate the gauge-invarian…
