We show that, at the classical level, the recently proposed `ambitwistor string' model is equivalent to the spinor moving frame formulation of null-supersting, which in its turn is equivalent to Siegel's formulation of closed twistor string or to its higher dimensional generalizations. Although the null-(super)string is usually considered as describing the tensionless limit of (super)string, we show that its action can be derived from the spinor moving frame formulation of superstring also in the infinite tension limit. This observation allows us to argue on the absence of critical dimensions and suggests that the (ambi)twistor string based technique(s) to calculate field theory amplitudes can be developed not only in D=10 or 26, but also in D=11 and other dimensions. The D=11 and D=10 twistor strings are described in some details.

Tensionless limit of M5-brane and conformal symmetry of its bosonic body
The tensionless M5-brane has a complete action whose bosonic sector is invariant under 11D conformal symmetry and reduces to conformal chiral 2-form electrodynamics when transverse fluctuations vanish.

Bosonic sectorized strings and the $(DF)^{2}$ theory
The current algebra extension of the bosonic sectorized string reproduces the mass-deformed (DF)^2 plus YM plus phi^3 effective action at the level of kinetic terms and three-point amplitudes.

On polarized scattering equations for superamplitudes of 11D supergravity and ambitwistor superstring
The polarized scattering equation for 11D supergravity is derived from the supertwistor form of the ambitwistor superstring with SO(16) covariance, and a fermionic superpartner equation on superamplitudes is found.
