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…
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…
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…
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…
