Definition of unintegrated vertex
We will use the notations:
Let us try to relax the
condition of the -invariance for the vertex,
i.e. do not require that
.
In this case the deformed action will not be
-invariant. It does not seem to be possible
to modify the definition of
so that the deformed action
be invariant.
Notice however that it is invariant up to BRST-exact terms, because
We will deal with this complication in the following way. Let us assume that, instead of being
an integral over the worldsheet, is actually a sum of insertions of some operators into
fixed points on the worldsheet.
We can then restrict the group of diffeomorphisms to a subgroup which preserves those points.
Let
be the subalgebra of
which preserves the points of insertions; then:
We will also impose on
all the same restrictions as on the integrated vertex
but only for
with
limited to belong to
.
Remember that we have to integrate
over some cycle in the moduli space of Lagrangian submanifolds.
We postulate that, in case of unintegrated vertex:
the integration cycle should include the variations of the positions of the insertion points
On the next page we will start the investigation of the
procedure of integration over those insertion points.
