Towards the Theory of Non--Abelian Tensor Fields II

We go on with the definition of the theory of the non--Abelian two--tensor fields and find the gauge transformation rules and curvature tensor for them. To define the theory we use the surface {\it exponent} proposed in hep--th/0503234. We derive the differential equation for the {\it exponent} and make an attempt to give a matrix model formulation for it. We discuss application of our constructions to the Yang--Baxter equation for integrable models and to the String Field Theory.

Simplicial vs. Continuum String Theory and Loop Equations

We derive loop equations in a scalar matrix field theory. We discuss their solutions in terms of simplicial string theory -- the theory describing embeddings of two--dimensional simplicial complexes into the space--time of the matrix field theory. This relation between the loop equations and the simplicial string theory gives further arguments that favor one of the statements of the paper hep-th/0407018. The statement is that there is an equivalence between the partition function of the simplicial string theory and the functional integral in a continuum string theory -- the theory describing embeddings of smooth two--dimensional world--sheets into the space--time of the matrix field theory in question.

Expansion in Feynman Graphs as Simplicial String Theory

We show that the series expansion of quantum field theory in the Feynman diagrams can be explicitly mapped on the partition function of the simplicial string theory -- the theory describing embeddings of the two--dimensional simplicial complexes into the space--time of the field theory. The summation over two--dimensional geometries in this theory is obtained from the summation over the Feynman diagrams and the integration over the Schwinger parameters of the propagators. We discuss the meaning of the obtained relation and derive the one--dimensional analog of the simplicial theory on the example of the free relativistic particle.

Non-Abelian Structures in BSFT and RR couplings

In this talk we show that the tachyon annihilation combined with an approximation, in which string theory non-commutativity structure is captured by the algebra of differential operators on space-time, gives a unified point of view on: non-Abelian structures on $D$-branes; all lowest energy excitations on $D$-branes; all RR couplings in type II string theory.

On Unification of RR Couplings

We consider the couplings of RR fields with open string sector for $Dp$-${\overline{Dp}}$ backgrounds of various $p$. Proposed approach, based on the approximation of the open string algebra by the algebra of differential operators, provides the unified description of these couplings and their interrelations.

Non-commutative Gross-Neveu model at large N

The non-commutative O(N) Gross-Neveu model is solved in the large N limit in two and three space-time dimensions. The commutative version of the two dimensional model is a renormalizable quantum field theory, both in a coupling constant expansion and an expansion in 1/N. The non-commutative version has a renormalizable coupling constant expansion where ultraviolet divergences can be removed by adjusting counterterms to each order. On the other hand, in a previous work, we showed that the non-commutative theory is not renormalizable in the large N expansion. This is argued to be due to a combined effect of asymptotic freedom and the ultraviolet/infrared mixing that occurs in a non-commutative field theory. In the present paper we will elaborate on this result and extend it to study the large N limit of the three dimensional Gross-Neveu model. We shall see that the large N limit of the three dimensional theory is also trivial when the ultraviolet cutoff is removed.

Running couplings and triviality of field theories on non-commutative spaces

We examine the issue of renormalizability of asymptotically free field theories on non-commutative spaces. As an example, we solve the non-commutative O(N) invariant Gross-Neveu model at large N. On commutative space this is a renormalizable model with non-trivial interactions. On the noncommutative space, if we take the translation invariant ground state, we find that the model is non-renormalizable. Removing the ultraviolet cutoff yields a trivial non-interacting theory.
