We show that the amplitudes obtained are exactly the same as those obtained from the world-sheet sigma model calculation, and that the construction enforces the requirement for integrated vertex operators, even in the off-shell case. Using the expressions obtained for the boundary state we propose higher order terms in the string loop expansion for the background considered.28 pages, 0 figuresHigh Energy Physics - TheoryThe Off-Shell Boundary State and Cross-Caps in the Genus Expansion of String Theorytext
