Deriving the long-string CFT in AdS3

Abstract We revisit the path integral formulation of bosonic string theory in locally-AdS3 spacetimes. Through a careful analysis of the worldsheet sigma model, we write down an effective theory of long strings living near the boundary of AdS3. By directly computing the partition function of the lon...
