A Matrix Model for the Two Dimensional Black Hole
read the original abstract
We construct and study a matrix model that describes two dimensional string theory in the Euclidean black hole background. A conjecture of V. Fateev, A. and Al. Zamolodchikov, relating the black hole background to condensation of vortices (winding modes around Euclidean time) plays an important role in the construction. We use the matrix model to study quantum corrections to the thermodynamics of two dimensional black holes.

$c=1$ strings as a matrix integral
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 desc...

One-loop effect in the charged 2D black hole near extremality
The one-loop correction to near-extremal quantum entropy in this charged 2D black hole is exponentially suppressed at low temperature but scales as sqrt(beta) when the sl(2,R) level and SL(2,R)-U(1) coupling are tuned...
