Conformal Field Theory for the Superstring in a Ramond-Ramond Plane Wave Background
Abstract
A quantizable worldsheet action is constructed for the superstring in a supersymmetric plane wave background with Ramond-Ramond flux. The action is manifestly invariant under all isometries of the background and is an exact worldsheet conformal field theory.
