The fuzzball proposal for black holes

K Skenderis, M Taylor - Physics Reports, 2008 - Elsevier
The fuzzball proposal states that associated with a black hole of entropy S, there are
expShorizon-free non-singular solutions that asymptotically look like the black hole but …

Towards integrability for

A Sfondrini - Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical, 2014 - iopscience.iop.org
We review the recent progress towards applying worldsheet integrability techniques to the
${\rm Ad}{{{\rm S}} _ {3}}/{\rm CF}{{{\rm T}} _ {2}} $ correspondence to find its all-loop S matrix …

A perturbative CFT dual for pure NS–NS AdS3 strings

L Eberhardt - Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
We construct a conformal field theory dual to string theory on AdS 3 with pure NS–NS flux. It
is given by a symmetric orbifold of a linear dilaton theory deformed by a marginal operator …

A bstract A solvable irrelevant deformation of AdS 3/CFT 2 correspondence leading to a
theory with Hagedorn spectrum at high energy has been recently proposed. It consists of a …

Type II string theory on and symmetric orbifolds

O Aharony, EY Urbach - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
We discuss in detail the 1+ 1-dimensional superconformal field theory dual to type II string
theory on AdS 3× S 3× T 4, emphasizing the string theoretic aspects of this duality. For one …

TsT, and black strings

L Apolo, S Detournay, W Song - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 - Springer
A bstract We study the relationship between TsT transformations, marginal deformations of
string theory on AdS 3 backgrounds, and irrelevant deformations of 2d CFTs. We show that …
