We continue the study of the d=2,4,6 pure-spinor superstring models introduced in [1]. By explicitly solving the pure-spinor constraint we show that these theories have vanishing central charge and work out the (covariant) current algebra for the Lorentz currents. We argue that these super-Poincare covariant models may be thought of as compactifications of the superstring on CY_{4,3,2}, and take some steps toward making this precise by constructing a map to the RNS superstring variables. We also discuss the relation to the so called hybrid superstrings, which describe the same type of compactifications.

  1. Vertex operators for the superstring with manifest $d=6$ $\mathcal{N}=1$ supersymmetry

    hep-th 2024-12 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A manifestly d=6 N=1 supersymmetric vertex operator and amplitude prescription are constructed for the superstring, with BRST invariance implying the SYM equations of motion.
