Modular invariance of closed bosonic string theory with a pp-wave background
After a brief review of the necessary parts of the theory of the bosonic string, a consistent pp-wave background with constant dilaton and constant three-index antisymmetric field strength is introduced. In particular, the gravitational background is the plane wave with constant coefficients, and t...
