Lower-dimensional pure-spinor superstrings
arXiv:hep-th/0509140 · doi:10.1088/1126-6708/2005/12/007
Abstract
We study to what extent it is possible to generalise Berkovits' pure-spinor construction in d=10 to lower dimensions. Using a suitable definition of a ``pure'' spinor in d=4,6, we propose models analogous to the d=10 pure-spinor superstring in these dimensions. Similar models in d=2,3 are also briefly discussed.
