Abstract:
We study a quantum mechanical $\sigma$-model whose target space is a hyperKähler cone. As shown by Singleton, [184], such a theory has superconformal invariance under the algebra $\mathfrak{osp}(4^*|4)$. One can formally define a superconformal index that counts the short representations of the algebra. When the hyperKähler cone has a projective symplectic resolution, we define a regularised superconformal index. The index is defined as the equivariant Hirzebruch index of the Dolbeault cohomology of the resolution, hereafter referred to as the index. In many cases, the index can be explicitl

Abstract:
This thesis discusses several aspects of string field theory. The first issue is bosonic open-closed string field theory and its associated algebraic structure -- the quantum open-closed homotopy algebra. We describe the quantum open-closed homotopy algebra in the framework of homotopy involutive Lie bialgebras, as a morphism from the loop homotopy Lie algebra of closed string to the involutive Lie bialgebra on the Hochschild complex of open strings. The formulation of the classical/quantum open-closed homotopy algebra in terms of a morphism from the closed string algebra to the open string Ho

Abstract:
In this thesis we consider some aspects of two dimensional Conformal Field Theory and their connection to String Theory. We have also studied some aspects of supersymmetry of M-Theory on Ricci-flat seven manifolds with 4-form fluxes. We concentrate mainly on certain supersymmetric extensions of the coset models due to Goddard, Kent and Olive (GKO). These models are known as the Kazama-Suzuki (KS) models and they are characterized by their <i>N</i> = 2 superconformal symmetry. Two series of the KS models enjoy a duality called level-rank duality which can be described roughly as duality between

Abstract:
“Issues on tadpoles and vacuum redefinitions in String Theory” Marco Nicolosi Questa Tesi di dottorato è dedicata al problema dei “tadpoles” di NS-NS, funzioni ad un punto di campi bosonici assorbiti dal vuoto che tipicamente emergono nella Teoria delle Stringhe in seguito alla rottura della supersimmetria. Queste teorie contengono campi bosonici in due settori, quello di NS-NS e quello di R-R. Mentre i “tadpoles” di R-R tipicamente segnalano un’inconsistenza, come la presenza di anomalie quantistiche nel caso di spazi interni compatti, e quindi in generale devono essere cancellati,

We show that after the appropriate field redefinition which relates the string field theory variables to the worldsheet variables one obtains the correct Born-Infeld terms. We then compute the rolling tachyon solution in the context of string field t

Our main tool of analysis is level truncated open bosonic string field theory We use level truncation to check that the energy difference between the local maximum and the local minimum of the open bosonic tachyon effective potential is equal to the tension of a space-filling D-brane (Sen's first conjecture). Our results prove this equa

These results focus on two directions. The first one is motivated by tachyon dynamics in open string theory. We calculate the stress tensors for the p-adic string model and for the pure tachyonic sector of open string field theory (OSFT). We give the energy density of lump solutions and attempt to evaluate the evolution of the pressure in rolling tachyon solutions. We discuss the relevance of
