Covariant And Local Field Theory On The World Sheet
arXiv:1206.1075 · doi:10.1007/JHEP07(2012)179
Abstract
In earlier work, using the light cone picture, a world sheet field theory that sums planar phi^3 graphs was constructed and developed. Since this theory is both non-local and not explicitly Lorentz invariant, it is desirable to have a covariant and local alternative. In this paper, we construct such a covariant and local world sheet theory, and show that it is equivalent to the original non-covariant version.
