abstract

The $T\bar T$ deformation is a solvable irrelevant deformation whose properties depend on the sign of the deformation parameter $\mu$. In particular, $T\bar T$-deformed CFTs with $\mu<0$ have been proposed to be holographically dual to Einstein gravity where the metric satisfies Dirichlet boundary conditions at a finite cutoff surface. In this paper, we put forward a holographic proposal for $T\bar T$-deformed CFTs with $\mu>0$, in which case the bulk geometry is constructed by gluing a patch of AdS$_3$ to the original spacetime. As evidence, we show that the $T\bar T$ trace flow equation, the spectrum on the cylinder, and the partition function on the torus and the sphere, among other results, can all be reproduced from bulk calculations in glue-on AdS$_3$.

  1. Selecting Complex Extremal Surfaces with the Kontsevich--Segal--Witten Criterion

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0

    In AdS3, dS3, and AdS4 hyperbolic examples, the Kontsevich-Segal-Witten criterion uniquely selects a three-piece complex contour for timelike extremal surfaces, while timelike strips in AdS4 violate the criterion near...

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    TTbar-deformed CFT torus partition functions are expressed via spectral decomposition into Maass forms that deform simply, enabling analytic continuation beyond the Hagedorn singularity.

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Constructs deformed vertex operators in a topological string description of T T-bar deformed tensionless AdS3/CFT2 and computes their exact tree-level two-point functions.

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    In TTbar-deformed anomalous CFT2 the chaos bound stays saturated while butterfly velocity depends nontrivially on deformation strength and anomaly, with a Hagedorn regime where the chaotic response turns complex.
