Metric-independent measures for supersymmetric extended object theories on curved backgrounds
For Green–Schwarz superstring σ-model on curved backgrounds, we introduce a non-metric measure Φ≡ϵijϵIJ(∂iφI)(∂jφJ) with two scalars φI(I=1,2) used in ‘Two-Measure Theory’ (TMT). As in the flat-background case, the string tension T=(2πα′)−1 emerges as an integration constant for the Ai-field equatio...
