Nonrenormalization Theorems in Superstring Theory
A simple proof of the nonrenormalization theorems in string theory is given. We prove (with the assumption that space-time supersymmetry is nonanomalous) that the space-time sup...
Dilaton-derived quintessence scenario leading naturally to the late-time acceleration of the Universe
Quintessence scenarios provide a simple explanation for the observed acceleration of the Universe. Yet, explaining why acceleration did not start a long time ago remains a chall...
Entropy and temperature of black 3-branes
We consider slightly non-extremal black 3-branes of type IIB supergravity and\nshow that their Bekenstein-Hawking entropy agrees, up to a mysterious factor,\nwith an entropy der...
STRING FIELD THEORY AND PHYSICAL INTERPRETATION OF D=1 STRINGS
We describe a field theoretic formulation for one-dimensional string theory. It is given by the collective field representation of the matrix model and leads to a physical inter...
