Can I read The No-ghost Theorem for String Theory in Curved Backgrounds with a Flat Timelike Direction on EtoBox?

The No-ghost Theorem for String Theory in Curved Backgrounds with a Flat Timelike Direction by Asano, Masako; Natsuume, Makoto is a scholarly article available to read on EtoBox.

What is The No-ghost Theorem for String Theory in Curved Backgrounds with a Flat Timelike Direction about?

It is well-known that the standard no-ghost theorem can be extended straightforwardly to the general c=26 CFT on R^{d-1,1} \times K, where 2 \leq d \leq 26 and K is a compact unitary CFT of appropriate central charge. We prove the no-ghost theorem for d=1, i.e., when only the timelike direction is flat. This is done using the technique of Frenkel, Garland and Zuckerman.
