An introduction to the theory of dual models and strings
Abstract
The theory of a free string is first presented classically and quantum mechanically both in a covariant and a nonexplicitly covariant treatment. Then the concepts and techniques obtained from the free string are used to build the operator formalism of dual models. Both the conventional Veneziano model and the Neveu-Schwarz-Ramond model are presented. The self-consistency of these models at the tree and loop levels is investigated, and the interpretation of the results obtained is given in terms of the string picture.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
