We review recent developments in the construction of heterotic and type II string field theories and their various applications. These include systematic procedures for determining the shifts in the vacuum expectation values of fields under quantum corrections, computing renormalized masses and S-matrix of the theory around the shifted vacuum and a proof of unitarity of the S-matrix. The S-matrix computed this way is free from all divergences when there are more than 4 non-compact space-time dimensions, but suffers from the usual infrared divergences when the number of non-compact space-time dimensions is 4 or less.

Discussion (0). Continue with ORCID to comment.

  1. Hyperbolic String Vertices

    hep-th 2019-08 accept novelty 8.0 of 10

    Systolic subsets of hyperbolic moduli spaces provide exact string vertices that solve the BV master equation.

  2. Recursive-algebraic solution of the closed string tachyon vacuum equation

    hep-th 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 7.0 of 10

    Presents a seam-graded recursive algebraic method that converts the closed string tachyon vacuum equation into a sequence of matrix inversions in the zero-momentum Lorentz-scalar sector.

  3. Boundary terms in string field theory

    hep-th 2024-11 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The free closed string field theory action is supplemented with a boundary term, derived from the failure of BRST cyclicity, that reproduces the Gibbons-Hawking-York term at low energies.

  4. Instanton-Induced Closed-String Amplitudes in Minimal Superstring Theory at Subleading Order

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Explicit computation of instanton-induced amplitudes in minimal superstring theories at subleading order, after regulating open-string degenerations with string field theory, yields exact agreement with DDK-KPZ scaling.

  5. Symplectic structure in open string field theory III: Electric field

    hep-th 2026-04 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    OSFT symplectic energy of a constant-electric-flux D-brane matches the DBI energy via a generalized Ellwood invariant for nonpolynomial theories.

  6. On the $AdS_5\times S^5$ Solution of Superstring Field Theory

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The AdS5 x S5 background of type IIB superstring field theory is constructed explicitly to third order in the large-radius expansion, with maximal super-isometry verified to second order and the massless RR axion iden...

  7. UV Effects and Short-Lived Hawking Radiation: Alternative Resolution of Information Paradox

    hep-th 2024-11 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Hawking radiation terminates around the scrambling time due to trans-Planckian stringy effects in GUP and string-field-theory-inspired toy models, yielding negligible evaporation and a mostly classical black hole.
