We discuss the amplitudes describing N-gluon scattering in type I superstring theory, on a disk world-sheet. After reviewing the general structure of amplitudes and the complications created by the presence of a large number of vertices at the boundary, we focus on the most promising case of maximally helicity violating (MHV) configurations because in this case, the zero Regge slope limit (alpha -> 0) is particularly simple. We obtain the full-fledged MHV disk amplitudes for N=4,5 and N=6 gluons, expressed in terms of one, two and six functions of kinematic invariants, respectively. These functions represent certain boundary integrals - generalized Euler integrals - which for N>= 6 correspond to multiple hypergeometric series (generalized Kampe de Feriet functions). Their alpha-expansions lead to Euler-Zagier sums. For arbitrary N, we show that the leading string corrections to the Yang-Mills amplitude, of order O(alpha^2), originate from the well-known alpha^2 Tr F^4 effective interactions of four gauge field strength tensors. By using iteration based on the soft gluon limit, we derive a simple formula valid to that order for arbitrary N. We argue that such a procedure can be extended to all orders in alpha. If nature gracefully picked a sufficiently low string mass scale, our results would be important for studying string effects in multi-jet production at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).

We consider scattering processes involving N gluonic massless states of open superstrings with certain Regge slope alpha. At the semi-classical level, the string world-sheet sweeps a disk and N gluons are created or annihilated at the boundary. We pr
esent exact expressions for the corresponding amplitudes, valid to all orders in alpha, for the so-called maximally helicity violating configurations, with N=4, 5 and N=6. We also obtain the leading O(alpha^2) string corrections to the zero-slope N-gluon Yang-Mills amplitudes.
The six gluon disk amplitude is calculated in superstring theory. This amplitude probes the gauge interactions with six external legs on Dp-branes, in particular including e.g. F^6-terms. The full string S-matrix can be expressed by six generalized m
ultiple hypergeometric functions (triple hypergeometric functions), which in the effective action play an important role in arranging the higher order alpha gauge interaction terms with six external legs (like F^6, D^4 F^4, D^2 F^5, D^6 F^4, D^2 F^6, ...). A systematic and efficient method is found to calculate tree-level string amplitudes by equating seemingly different expressions for one and the same string S-matrix: Comparable to Riemann identities appearing in string-loop calculations, we find an intriguing way of using world-sheet supersymmetry to generate a system of non-trivial equations for string tree-level amplitudes. These equations result in algebraic identities between different multiple hypergeometric functions. Their (six-dimensional) solution gives the ingredients of the string S-matrix. We derive material relevant for any open string six-point scattering process: relations between triple hypergeometric functions, their integral representations and their alpha-(momentum)-expansions given by (generalized) Euler-Zagier sums or (related) Witten zeta-functions.
The gauge-fixing problem of modified cubic open superstring field theory is discussed in detail both for the Ramond and Neveu-Schwarz sectors in the Batalin-Vilkovisky (BV) framework. We prove for the first time that the same form of action as the cl
assical gauge-invariant one with the ghost-number constraint on the string field relaxed gives the master action satisfying the BV master equation. This is achieved by identifying independent component fields based on the analysis of the kernel structure of the inverse picture changing operator. The explicit gauge-fixing conditions for the component fields are discussed. In a kind of $b_0=0$ gauge, we explicitly obtain the NS propagator which has poles at the zeros of the Virasoro operator $L_0$.
Inspired by superstring field theory, we study differential, integral, and inverse forms and their mutual relations on a supermanifold from a sheaf-theoretical point of view. In particular, the formal distributional properties of integral forms are r
ecovered in this scenario in a geometrical way. Further, we show how inverse forms extend the ordinary de Rham complex on a supermanifold, thus providing a mathematical foundation of the Large Hilbert Space used in superstrings. Last, we briefly discuss how the Hodge diamond of a supermanifold looks like, and we explicitly compute it for super Riemann surfaces.
Using string scattering amplitudes of open bosonic string on a single $D$-brane, we construct a local field theoretical action for tachyon fields. Cubic local interactions between various particles, belonging to the particle spectrum of string may be
directly followed from three-string scattering amplitude. These cubic local interactions may generate perturbative non-local four-particle interactions, which may contribute to four-string scattering amplitude. It was observed that tachyon field in open bosonic string theory must be represented by a complex field in order to reproduce the Veneziano amplitude, describing four-tachyon scattering. The Veneziano amplitude, expanded in terms of $s$-channel poles was compared with the four-tachyon scattering amplitudes in $s$-channel generated perturbatively and it was found that a quartic potential term is needed in the local field theoretical action, which describes open string theory effectively in the low energy regime. With this quartic term, the tachyon potential has a stable minimum point and the tachyon field may condensate. As a result, both tachyon and gauge fields become massive at Planck scale and completely disappear from the low energy particle spectrum.
