Conformal techniques, bosonization and tree-level string amplitudes
TL;DR: In this article, a simple representation of the cocycle operators that are needed for bosonization of conformal operators, including spin fields and ghosts, is given, and a typical calculation of a four-point amplitude in the o(16) × o (16) heterotic string is presented in manifestly Lorentz-covariant form.

CPT and strings
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors define the string space-time symmetries C,P,T and their products using string field theory and incorporate the effects of nonlocal interactions and the infinite number of particle fields.
Tachyon couplings on non-BPS D-branes and Dirac-Born-Infeld action
TL;DR: In this paper, an extension of the abelian Dirac-Born-Infeld action to non-abelian cases was proposed, which includes non-linearly the dynamics of the tachyon field much like the other bosonic modes of the non-BPS D p -brane.

Tachyon couplings on non-BPS D-branes and Dirac-Born-Infeld action
TL;DR: In this paper, an extension of the abelian Dirac-Born-Infeld action was proposed to reproduce the dynamics of the tachyon field much like the other bosonic modes of the non-BPS D$p$-brane.

Photon and graviton masses in string theories.
TL;DR: It is shown that string theories allow interactions potentially leading to photon and graviton-mass terms when one or more scalar fields acquire vacuum expectation values, which provides a new constraint on model building for string theories.
Classical gauge instantons from open strings
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the D3/D(-1) brane system and showed how to compute instanton corrections to correlation functions of gauge theories in four dimensions using open string techniques.

TL;DR: In this paper, a quantenmechanik der Gasentartung is discussed, e.g., ein ideales oder nichtideales Gase, der Paulischen Aquivalenzverbot unterworfenes Gas zu beschreiben with begriffen, die keinen Bezug nehmen auf den abstrakten Koordinatenraum der Atomgesamtheit des Gases, sondern nur den gewohnlichen dreidimensionalen Raum benut

Non-commutative geometry and string field theory
TL;DR: In this paper, an attempt is made to interpret the interactions of bosonic open strings as defining a non-cummulative, associative algebra, and to formulate the classical non-linear field theory of such strings in the language of non-commulative geometry.
