D-branes as GMS Solitons in Vacuum String Field Theory
arXiv:hep-th/0204233 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.66.126001
Abstract
In this paper we map the D-brane projector states in the vacuum string field theory to the noncommutative GMS solitons based on the recently proposed map of Witten's star to Moyal's star. We find that the singular geometry conditions of Moore and Taylor are associated with the commutative modes of these projector states in our framework. The properties of the candidate closed string state and the wedge state are also discussed, and the possibility of the non-GMS soliton in VSFT is commented.
