Notes on the pure spinor b ghost

In this work, a particular BRST-exact class of deformations of the b ghost in the non-minimal pure spinor formalism is investigated and the impact of this construction in the $\mathcal{N}=2$ $\widehat{c}=3$ topological string algebra is analysed. As an example, a subclass of deformations is explicitly shown, where the U(1) current appears in a conventional form, involving only the ghost number currents. Furthermore, a c ghost like composite field is introduced, but with an unusual construction.
