Critical and non-critical W_{2,4} strings
H. Lu, C. N. Pope, X. J. Wang +1
Nilpotent BRST operators for higher-spin strings, with currents of spins 2 and , have recently been constructed for , 5 and 6. In the case of , this oper…
Higher-spin strings and W minimal models
H. Lu, C. N. Pope, K. Thielemans +1
We study the spectrum of physical states for higher-spin generalisations of string theory, based on two-dimensional theories with local spin-2 and spin- symmetries. We explore t…
On the Spectrum and Scattering of W_3 Strings
H. Lu, C. N. Pope, S. Schrans +1
We present a detailed investigation of scattering processes in string theory. We discover further physical states with continuous momentum, which involve excitations of the g…
The Interacting String
H. Lu, C. N. Pope, S. Schrans +1
We present a procedure for computing gauge-invariant scattering amplitudes in the string, and use it to calculate three-point and four-point functions. We show that non-vanis…
