The nature of ZZ branes

چکیده

In minimal non-critical string theory we show that the principal (r,s) ZZ brane can be viewed as the basic (1,1) ZZ boundary state tensored with the (r,s) Cardy boundary state. In this sense there exists only one ZZ boundary state, the basic (1,1) boundary state.

Annulus Amplitudes and ZZ Branes in Minimal String Theory

We study the annulus amplitudes of (p, q) minimal string theory and their geometrical interpretation in terms of the Riemann surface Mp,q that emerges from the FZZT branes. Focusing on the ZZ-FZZT annulus amplitude as a target-space probe of the ZZ brane, we use it to confirm that the ZZ branes are localized in the strong-coupling region. We also show that the deformation to Mp,q due to the pre...

World-sheet dynamics of ZZ branes

We show how non-compact space-time (ZZ branes) emerges as a limit of compact space-time (FZZT branes) for specific ratios between the square of the boundary cosmological constant and the bulk cosmological constant in the (2, 2m−1) minimal model coupled to two-dimensional quantum gravity.

Zz Branes from a Worldsheet Perspective. *

We show how non-compact space-time (ZZ branes) emerges as a limit of compact space-time (FZZT branes) for specific ratios between the square of the boundary cosmological constant and the bulk cosmological constant in the (2,2m 1) minimal model coupled to two-dimensional euclidean quantum gravity. Furthermore, we show that the principal (r,s) ZZ brane can be viewed as the basic (1,1) ZZ boundary...

On tachyon condensation and open-closed duality in the c = 1 string theory

We present an exact representation for decaying ZZ-branes within the dual matrix model formulation of c = 1 string theory. It is shown how to trade the insertion of decaying ZZ-branes for a shift of the closed string background. Our formalism allows us to demonstrate that the conjectured world-sheet mechanism behind the open-closed dualities (summing over disc insertions) is realized here in a ...

ZZ brane amplitudes from matrix models

We study instanton contribution to the partition function of the one matrix model in the k-th multicritical region which corresponds to the (2, 2k − 1) minimal model coupled to Liouville theory. The instantons in the one matrix model are given by local extrema of the effective potential for a matrix eigenvalue and identified with the ZZ branes in Liouville theory. We show that the 2-instanton c...
