correlators from tensionless strings

Andrea Dei, Kiarash Naderi

Motivated by earlier approaches, we develop a worldsheet framework for computing correlation functions in the single trace -deformed tensionless AdS/CFT dua…

The On-shell Gravity Action and Linear Dilaton Holography

Andrea Dei, Kiarash Naderi, Savdeep Sethi

Computing the Euclidean spacetime action on-shell provides a useful way of both testing holographic proposals and determining the string theory sphere partition function. We consid…

On the string theory of a single NS5-brane

Andrea Dei, Emil J. Martinec

We formulate a worldsheet description of string theory in the background of a single decoupled NS5-brane, which is a particularly simple example of ``little string'' holography. Th…

On Supergravity and Noncritical Strings

Andrea Dei, Pietro Ferrero, Leonardo Rastelli

Motivated by the long-term goal of finding holographic descriptions for and super QCD, we revisit the subject of ''noncritical'' superstring theor…

Tensionless AdS/CFT and Single Trace

Andrea Dei, Bob Knighton, Kiarash Naderi +1

One of the few cases of AdS/CFT where both sides of the duality are under good control relates tensionless strings on AdS to a two-dimensional symmetric product CFT. Buil…

Solving AdS string theory at minimal tension: tree-level correlators

Andrea Dei, Bob Knighton, Kiarash Naderi

We revisit the minimal tension () string theory on . We propose a new free-field description of the worldsheet theory and show…
