Descent Relations and Oscillator Level Truncation Method
arXiv:hep-th/0606070 · doi:10.1007/s11232-007-0002-7
Abstract
We reexamine the oscillator level truncation method in the bosonic String Field Theory (SFT) by calculation the descent relation <V_3|V_1>=Z_3<V_2|. For the ghost sector we use the fermionic vertices in the standard oscillator basis. We propose two new schemes for calculations. In the first one we assume that the insertion satisfies the overlap equation for the vertices and in the second one we use the direct calculations. In both schemes we get the correct structures of the exponent and pre-exponent of the vertex <V_2|, but we find out different normalization factors Z_3.
