Non-orientable string one-loop corrections in the presence of a B field

We discuss the problem of noncommutative SO(N) gauge field theories from the string one-loop point of view. To this end we propose an expression for the string propagator on the boundary of the Moebius strip in the presence of a constant B field. We discuss in detail the problems related to its derivation. Then we use it to compute the one-loop corrections to two-, three- and four-gluon amplitudes in an open string theory with orthogonal Chan-Paton factors. We show that these corrections in the field theory limit in 4D are compatible with the one-loop corrections of a renormalizable noncommutative SO(N) gauge field theory.
