Internal and Super Symmetry in String Bit Models

Abstract

We study in a general way the construction of string bit Hamiltonians which are supersymmetric, We construct several quadratic and quartic polynomials in string bit creation and annihilation operators ${\bar\phi}^A_{a_1\cdots a_n}$, ${\phi}^A_{a_1\cdots a_n}$,which commute with the supersymmetry generators $Q^a$. Among these operators are ones with the spinor tensor structure required to provide the lightcone worldsheet vertex insertion factors needed to give the correct interactions for the IIB superstring, whenever a closed string separates into two closed strings or two closed strings join into one.
