Journal Article

We review the emergence of the ten-dimensional fermionic closed string theories from subspaces of the Hilbert space of the 26-dimensional bosonic closed string theory compactified on an E8 × SO(16) lattice. They arise from a consistent truncation pro... Read More about Brane fusion in the bosonic string and the emergence of fermionic strings.

Wakimoto modules for the affine superalgebra sl(2/1) and non-critical N = 2 Strings. (1996)
Journal Article
Bowcock, P., Koktava, R. K., & Taormina, A. (1996). Wakimoto modules for the affine superalgebra sl(2/1) and non-critical N = 2 Strings. Physics Letters B, 388(2), 303-308. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0370-2693%2896%2901103-3

Free field representations of the affine superalgebra A(1, 0)(1) at level k corresponding to two inequivalent choices of the simple roots are shown to be related by nonlinear canonical field transformations, both at the classical and at the quantum l...
