AdS3 string theory in the stringy regime k = (R AdS /ℓ s )2 < 1 provides a laboratory for the study of holography in which both sides of AdS/CFT duality are under fairly good control.

Newtonian Gravitons and D-brane Collective Coordinates in Wound String Theory [PDF]
Recently it was shown that NCOS theories are part of a ten-dimensional theory known as Non-relativistic Wound string theory. We clarify the sense in which gravity is present in this theory.

Free fermion cyclic/symmetric orbifold CFTs and entanglement entropy
In this paper we study the properties of two-dimensional CFTs defined by cyclic and symmetric orbifolds of free Dirac fermions, especially by focusing on the partition function and entanglement entropy.

We study the spectrum of open strings on AdS_2 branes in AdS_3 in an NS-NS background, using the SL(2,R) WZW model. When the brane carries no fundamental string charge, the open string spectrum is the holomorphic square root of the spectrum of closed ...

Strings in AdS_3 and the SL(2,R) WZW Model. Part 1: The Spectrum [PDF]
In this paper we study the spectrum of bosonic string theory on AdS_3. We study classical solutions of the SL(2,R) WZW model, including solutions for long strings with non-zero winding number.

Cosmic string scaling in flat space [PDF]
We investigate the evolution of infinite strings as a part of a complete cosmic string network in flat space. We perform a simulation of the network which uses functional forms for the string position and thus is exact to the limits of computer ...

Open String on Symmetric Product [PDF]
We develop some basic properties of the open string on the symmetric product which is supposed to describe the open string field theory in discrete lightcone quantization (DLCQ).

Duality and combinatorics of long strings in [PDF]
Abstract The counting of long strings in ADS 3 , in the context of type IIB string theory on ADS 3 ×S 3 ×T 4 , is used to exhibit the action of the duality group O(5,5;Z) , and in particular its Weyl subgroup S 5 ⋈Z 2 , in the non-perturbative phenomena associated with continuous spectra of ...

Stochastic gravitational waves from long cosmic strings
Abstract We compute the expected strain power spectrum and energy density parameter of the stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB) created by a network of long cosmic strings evolving during the whole cosmic history. As opposed to other studies, the contribution of cosmic string loops is discarded and our result provides ...

A Model for the Strings of Eta Carinae
We propose a model based on ionization shadows to explain the formation of the long and narrow strings of Eta Carinae. Five strings are known, all located along the symmetry axis outside the Homunculus.
