String field theory solution for any open string background
Original language description
We present an exact solution of open bosonic string field theory which can be used to describe any time-independent open string background. The solution generalizes an earlier construction of Kiermaier, Okawa, and Soler, and assumes the existence of boundary condition changing operators with nonsingular OPEs and vanishing conformal dimension. Our main observation is that boundary condition changing operators of this kind can describe nearly any open string background provided the background shift is accompanied by a timelike Wilson line of sufficient strength. As an application we analyze the tachyon lump describing the formation of a D(p 1)-brane in the string field theory of a Dp-brane, for generic compactification radius. This not only provides a proof of Sen?s second conjecture, but also gives explicit examples of higher energy solutions, confirming analytically that string field theory can ?reverse the direction of the worldsheet RG flow.
