Description

We construct a closed string field theory in the proper-time gauge which is the closed analog of the deformed cubic open string field theory and define the general closed string scattering amplitudes. Taking the zero-slope limit, we explicitly evaluate the three-graviton scattering amplitudes and the four-graviton scattering amplitudes. We discuss in the framework of the closed string field theory, the Kawai-Lewellen-Tye (KLT) relations, which relate the tree level string scattering amplitudes of closed string to those of open string.
