We complete the proof of the ghost-dilaton theorem in string theory by showing that the coupling constant dependence of the vacuum vertices appearing in the closed string action is given correctly by one-point functions of the ghost-dilaton. To prove this at genus one we develop the formalism required to evaluate off-shell amplitudes on tori.

  1. A New Term in Type II Effective Action

    hep-th 2026-07 unverdicted novelty 8.0 of 10

    One-loop type II effective actions contain a dilaton times Euler-density term from superconformal ghost zero modes, resolving a black-hole index puzzle on Calabi-Yau spaces.

  2. Closed String Field Theory in 25.99 Dimensions

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Refines CSFT for non-critical bosonic string backgrounds, proves mixed moduli space existence, and extends background independence to first order off the conformal locus for D=26-ε and linear dilaton cases.
