abstract

Liouville theory is shown to describe the asymptotic dynamics of three-dimensional Einstein gravity with a negative cosmological constant. This is because (i) Chern-Simons theory with a gauge group $SL(2,R) \times SL(2,R)$ on a space-time with a cylindrical boundary is equivalent to the non-chiral $SL(2,R)$ WZW model; and (ii) the anti-de Sitter boundary conditions implement the constraints that reduce the WZW model to the Liouville theory.

The Super Virasoro Minimal String from 3d Supergravity

hep-th · 2026-04-28 · unverdicted · novelty 8.0

The super Virasoro minimal string arises from quantizing 3d supergravity, with 0A+ and 0B+ dual to the bosonic minimal string matrix integral, 0B- to one with inverse square root singularity, and 0A- having vanishing non-trivial perturbative amplitudes.

What's the Matter with 3D Gravity?

hep-th · 2026-07-01 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Using worldline formalism and geometric quantization, the partition function for 3D gravity with matter on thermal AdS3 is computed via equivariant localization, reproducing the Wilson spool and conjecturing the all-orders result.

Timelike Liouville theory and AdS$_3$ gravity at finite cutoff

hep-th · 2025-08-05 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Proposes that AdS3 gravity at finite cutoff is dual to a CFT2 coupled to timelike Liouville theory deformed by a marginal operator, with checks via semiclassical partition functions and EOM matching.
