Abstract:
Since string theory on AdS_3 with NSNS-flux is solvable in principle, AdS_3/CFT_2 correspondence with the string theory is expected to be quite useful for learning generic properties of holographic principle. Recently, it was claimed that string theory on AdS_3 x X with NSNS-flux is dual to a symmetric orbifold M^N/S_N. Here the seed theory M is given by the product of linear dilaton theory and CFT_2 describing X. In this talk, I will show the correspondence among correlation functions of these dual theories.
