Timelike Boundary Sine-Gordon Theory and Two-Component Plasma
Niko Jokela, Esko Keski-Vakkuri, Jaydeep Majumder
It has long been known that there is a relation between boundary sine-Gordon theory and thermodynamics of charge neutral two-component Coulomb plasma on a unit circle. On the other…
Disk Partition Function and Oscillatory Rolling Tachyons
Niko Jokela, Matti Jarvinen, Esko Keski-Vakkuri +1
An exact cubic open string field theory rolling tachyon solution was recently found by Kiermaier et. al. and Schnabl. This oscillatory solution has been argued to be related by a f…
A Thermodynamic Interpretation of Time for Rolling Tachyons
Vijay Balasubramanian, Niko Jokela, Esko Keski-Vakkuri +1
We show that the open string worldsheet description of brane decay (discussing a specific example of a rolling tachyon background) can be related to a sequence of points of thermod…
