| String field theory is a candidate for a full non-perturbative definition of string theory. We aim to define string field theory on a space-time lattice to investigate its behaviour at the quantum level. Specifically, we look at string field theory in a one dimensional linear dilaton background, using level truncation to restrict the theory to a finite number of fields. I will report on our preliminary results at level-0 and level-1. | |||
