Sliver frame stubs in OSFT via auxiliary fields

arXiv:2410.16228 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.111.106019

Abstract

In this short paper we want to generalize some recent concepts related to stubs in open string field theory. First, we modify the auxiliary field method by Erbin and Firat [#Erbin2023] to non-BPZ even sliver frame stubs. We then also show that the construction is consistent at the full quantum level without any additional assumptions. Finally, we apply the method explicitly to the tachyon vacuum and the simplest identity-like solution.
