String and superstring theories; other extended objects (e.g., branes) in quantum field theory (81T30)

Abstract: We consider the tachyon potentials in closed and open-closed string theories. In doing so, we apply technique which proved to be useful in studying the open string tachyon potentials to the problem of interest.
