In this paper we consider a class of generalizations of Schnabl's solution of open bosonic string field theory obtained by replacing the wedge state by an arbitrary combination of wedge states. We find that under a few modest conditions such generalizations give a sensible deformation of Schnabl's solution for the closed string vacuum--in particular, we can compute their energies and show that they reproduce the value predicted by Sen's conjecture. Though these solutions are apparently gauge equivalent, they are not in general related by midpoint-preserving reparameterizations.

  1. Numerical solution for tachyon vacuum in the Schnabl gauge

    hep-th 2019-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A new level-truncation method reaches level 24 in the Schnabl gauge and shows the tachyon vacuum energy has a local minimum at level 12 before extrapolating toward the analytic value -1.
