We show that Type IIB string theory on AdS 3 × S 3 × M 4 with p units of NS flux contains an integrable subsector, isomorphic to the minimal (p, 1) bosonic string. To this end, we construct a topological string theory with target space Euclidean AdS 3 × S 3. We use a variant of Hamiltonian reduction to prove its equivalence to the minimal (p, 1) string. The topological theory is then embedded in the physical ten-dimensional IIB string theory. Correlators of tachyons in the minimal string are…

On minimal Script N = 4 topological strings and the (1,k) minimal bosonic string
In this paper we consider tree-level scattering in the minimal = 4 topological string and show that a large class of N-point functions can be recast in terms of corresponding amplitudes in the (1,k)
Topological cigar and the c = 1 string: open and closed
• Physics
• 2006
We clarify some aspects of the map between the c = 1 string theory at self-dual radius and the topologically twisted cigar at level one. We map the ZZ and FZZT D-branes in the c = 1 string theory at

• 2006
We study the scattering amplitudes in the N = 2 minimal string or equivalently in the N = 4 topological string on ALE spaces. We find an interesting connection between the tree level amplitudes of

We study the topologically twisted cigar, namely the SL(2,)/U(1) superconformal field theory at arbitrary level, and find the BRST cohomology of the topologically twisted N = 2 theory. We find a one
Discrete D-branes in AdS 3 and in the 2d black hole
I show how the AdS2 D-branes in the Euclidean AdS3 string theory are related to the continuous D-branes in Liouville theory. I then propose new discrete D-branes in the Euclidean AdS3 which
Double scaling limits and twisted non-critical superstrings
We consider double-scaling limits of multicut solutions of certain one matrix models that are related to Calabi-Yau singularities of type A and the respective topological B model via the
Complex matrix model duality
The same complex matrix model calculates both tachyon scattering for the c=1 noncritical string at the self-dual radius and certain correlation functions of operators which preserve half the

We propose an su(2) WZNW model with a non-rational level and a continuous spectrum based on the non-unitary hermitian representations of the chiral algebra su(2)_k. It is conjectured that for this
Diagrams for symmetric product orbifolds

We develop a diagrammatic language for symmetric product orbifolds of two-dimensional conformal field theories. Correlation functions of twist operators are written as sums of diagrams: each diagram
Large N spectrum of two matrices in a harmonic potential and BMN energies
The large N spectrum of the quantum mechanical hamiltonian of two hermitean matrices in a harmonic potential is studied in a framework where one of the matrices is treated exactly and the other is
