abstract

We summarize recent progress in the understanding of minimal string theory, focusing on the worldsheet description of physical operators and D-branes. We review how a geometric interpretation of minimal string theory emerges naturally from the study of the D-branes. This simple geometric picture ties together many otherwise unrelated features of minimal string theory, and it leads directly to a worldsheet derivation of the dual matrix model.

$c=1$ strings as a matrix integral

hep-th · 2026-04-07 · unverdicted · novelty 8.0

The c=1 string perturbative S-matrix equals a double-scaled (0+0)-dimensional matrix integral on the spectral curve x(z)=2√2 cos(z), y(z)=sin(z), establishing triality with worldsheet and matrix quantum mechanics descriptions.

All the D-Branes of Resurgence

hep-th · 2023-01-12 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Negative-tension ZZ-branes are required by resurgence to build complete transseries for minimal-string free energies, with analytic Stokes data and extensions to JT gravity and other string models.
