Doubly Supersymmetric Geometric Approach for Heterotic String: from Generalized Action Principle to Exactly Solvable Nonlinear Equations

The previously proposed generalized action principle approach to supersymmetric extended objects is considered in some details for the case of heterotic string in $D=3, 4, 6 ~and~ 10$ space--time dimensions. The proof of the 'off--shell' superdiffeomorphism invariance of the generalized action is presented. The doubly supersymmetric geometric approach to heterotic string is constructed on the basis of generalized action principle (instead of the geometrodynamic condition, used for this previously). It is demonstrated that $D=3$ heterotic string is described by $n=(1,0)$ supersymmetric generalization of the nonlinear Liouville equation.

Towards a Complete Twistorization of the Heterotic String

In $D=3,4,6$ and 10 space--time dimensions considered is a string model invariant under transformations of $N=1$ space--time supersymmetry and $n=D-2$ local worldsheet supersymmetry with the both Virasoro constraints solved in the twistor form. The twistor solution survives in a modified form even in the presence of the heterotic fermions.

Doubly Supersymmetric Null Strings and String Tension Generation

We propose a twistor--like formulation of N=1, D=3,4,6 and 10 null superstrings. The model possesses N=1 target space supersymmetry and n=D-2 local worldsheet supersymmetry, the latter replaces the kappa-symmetry of the conventional approach to the strings. Adding a Wess--Zumino term to a null superstring action we observe a string tension generation mechanism: the induced worldsheet metric becomes non-degenerate and the resulting model turns out to be classically equivalent to the heterotic string.
