Towards a tensionless string field theory for the N=20 $$ \mathcal{N}=\left(2,0\right) $$ CFT in d = 6

Abstract We describe progress in using the field theory of tensionless strings to arrive at a Lagrangian for the six-dimensional N=20 $$ \mathcal{N}=\left(2,0\right) $$ conformal theory. We construct the free part of the theory and propose an ansatz for the cubic vertex in light-cone superspace. By...
