摘要: In the pure spinor formalism for superstring, b antighost is necessary multiloop amplitude computations and a composite operator constructed to satisfy {Q, b}= T where Q BRST holomorphic stress-tensor. superstring backgrounds with only NS-NS fields turned on, or in flat space, one needs introduce “non-minimal” variables order construct antighost. However, Type II Ramond-Ramond bispinor field-strength satisfies certain conditions, can be without non-minimal variables. Although these not holomorphic, its antiholomorphic derivative BRST-trivial. We discuss properties of this both AdS 5×S 5 background generic curved background.
