We investigate the nature of the ground ring of c = 1 string theory at the special ADE points in the c = 1 moduli space associated to discrete subgroups of SU(2). The chiral ground rings at these points are shown to define the ADE series of singular varieties introduced by Klein. The non-chiral ground rings relevant to closed-string theory are 3 real dimensional singular theory are 3 real dimensional singular varieties obtained as U(1) quotients of the kleinian varieties. The unbroken…

We study topological and integrable aspects of = 1 strings. We consider the circle line theories 0A and 0B at particular radii, and the super affine theories at their self-dual radii. We construct
Matrix model and time-like linear dilaton matter
We consider a matrix model description of the 2d string theory whose matter part is given by a time-like linear dilaton CFT. This is equivalent to the c = 1 matrix model with a deformed, but very
Closed string tachyons, flips and conifolds
Following the analysis of tachyons and orbifold flips described in hep-th/0412337, we study nonsupersymmetric analogs of the supersymmetric conifold singularity and show using their toric geometry
