Casimir Forces between Beads on Strings and Membranes
Eric D'Hoker, Pierre Sikivie, Youli Kanev
We develop a general formalism to calculate the force between beads attached to a flat -dimensional membrane due to the quantum fluctuations of the membrane. The interaction pot…
The Box Graph In Superstring Theory
E. D'Hoker, D. H. Phong
In theories of closed oriented superstrings, the one loop amplitude is given by a single diagram, with the topology of a torus. Its interpretation had remained obscure, because it…
General Effective Actions
Eric D'Hoker, Steven Weinberg
We investigate the structure of the most general actions with symmetry group , spontaneously broken down to a subgroup . We show that the only possible terms in the Lagrangia…
Derivative Expansion of the Effective Action and Vacuum Instability for QED in 2+1 Dimensions
Daniel Cangemi, Gerald Dunne, Eric D'Hoker
We investigate the effective action of 2+1 dimensional charged spin 1/2 fermions and spin 0 bosons in the presence of a gauge field. We evaluate terms in an expansion up to…
Dispersion Relations in String Theory
Eric D'Hoker, D. H. Phong
We analyze the analytic continuation of the formally divergent one-loop amplitude for scattering of the graviton multiplet in the Type II Superstring. In particular we obtain expli…
