string theory guide

String theory is a perturbative theory of quantum gravity. Its loop diagrams are free of UV di- vergences which can be intuitively understood as follows: ...

String theory is one of the most complicated sciences being explored today. Not to worry though! This informative guide clearly explains the basics of this hot topic, discusses the theory’s hypotheses and predictions, and explores its curious implications.

quantum information and more. There are several reasons for this. First, string theory is capable of generating a vast number of quantum field theories (QFTs) in various dimensions. There are five types of string theories - Type I, IIA, IIB, Heterotic SO(32), and E8 × E8 - and M-theory is the limit of large dilaton expectation va

In a sense, the introduction of M-theory marks the end of “string theory,” because it ceases to be a theory that contains only fundamental strings. M-theory ...

Explicitly, we will find: Bosonic string: D = 26 (unfortunately, the 26d QFT has an unstable vacuum) Superstring: D = 10 (more or less unique 10d QFT – a 10d “supergravity theory”). To describe our world, we need to “compactify” 6 of the 10 dimensions.
