The Three-String Vertex for a Plane-Wave Background
John H. Schwarz
The three string vertex for Type IIB superstrings in a maximally supersymmetric plane-wave background can be constructed in a light-cone gauge string field theory formalism. The de…

Quantizing String Theory in AdS_5 X S^5: Beyond the pp-Wave
Curtis G. Callan, Hok Kong Lee, Tristan McLoughlin +3
In a certain kinematic limit, where the effects of spacetime curvature (and other background fields) greatly simplify, the light-cone gauge world-sheet action for a type IIB supers…
