In this short paper we review basic ideas of string field theory with the emphasis on the recent developments. We show how without much technicalities one can look for analytic solutions to Witten’s open string field theory. This is an expanded version of a talk given by the author over the last year at a number of occasions1 and notably at the conference Selected Topics in Mathematical and Particle Physics in honor of Prof. JiˇrLi Niederle’s 70th birthday.

We consider one-loop vacuum energy at the tachyon vacuum in cubic bosonic open string field theory. The BRST operator Ql in the theory around an identity-based solution is believed to represent a kinetic operator at the tachyon vacuum. Using homotopy operators for Ql, we find that one-loop vacuum energy at the tachyon vacuum is independent of moduli such as interbrane distances. This result can be interpreted as support for the annihilation of D-branes at the tachyon vacuum even in the quantum theory.
