The nilpotent structure of open-closed string field theory

In this note we revisit the homotopy-algebraic structure of oriented bosonic open-closed string field theory and we give a new compact formulation in terms of a single cyclic open-closed co-derivation which defines a single nilpotent structure describing the consistency of generic open-closed off-shell amplitudes with arbitrary number of boundaries and at arbitrary genus.ISSN:1126-6708ISSN:1029-847
