abstract
We present a simple physical representation for states of the two-dimensional string theory. In order to incorporate a fundamental cutoff of the order 1/g we use a picture consisting of q-oscillators at the first-quantized level. In this framework we also find a representation for the (singular) negatively dressed states representing nontrivial string backgrounds.

Fate of "Space-like singularities" in $c=1$ Matrix Model
Space-like singularities in the c=1 matrix model are artifacts of the double scaling limit; beyond it, Fermi surface folds proliferate and the coarse-grained phase space density relaxes to equilibrium via a universal power-law independent of initial state details.
