Open-closed string correspondence: D-brane decay in curved space
M. Baumgartl, I. Sachs
This paper analyzes the effect of curved closed string backgrounds on the stability of D-branes within boundary string field theory. We identify the non-local open string backgroun…

Factorization Conjecture and the Open/Closed String Correspondence
Marcus Baumgartl, Ivo Sachs, Samson L. Shatashvili
We present evidence for the factorization of the world-sheet path integrals for 2d conformal field theories on the disk into bulk and boundary contributions. This factorization is…
