Classical and Quantized Tensionless Strings
J. Isberg, U. Lindström, B. Sundborg +1
{}From the ordinary tensile string we derive a geometric action for the tensionless () string and discuss its symmetries and field equations. The Weyl symmetry of the usual st…

Space-Time Symmetries of Quantized Tensionless Strings
J. Isberg, U. Lindström, B. Sundborg
The tensionless limit of the free bosonic string is space-time conformally symmetric classically. Requiring invariance of the quantum theory in the light cone gauge tests the repar…
