Liouville field theory on a pseudosphere
read the original abstract
Liouville field theory is considered with boundary conditions corresponding to a quantization of the classical Lobachevskiy plane (i.e. euclidean version of $AdS_2$). We solve the bootstrap equations for the out-vacuum wave function and find an infinite set of solutions. This solutions are in one to one correspondence with the degenerate representations of the Virasoro algebra. Consistency of these solutions is verified by both boundary and modular bootstrap techniques. Perturbative calculations lead to the conclusion that only the ``basic'' solution corresponding to the identity operator provides a ``natural'' quantization of the Lobachevskiy plane.

Living on the edge: a non-perturbative resolution to the negativity of bulk entropies
Summing non-perturbative contributions in the gravitational path integral, extended via matrix integral saddles including one- and two-eigenvalue instantons, resolves negativity of bulk entropies in two-sided black holes.

Quantum Liouville Cosmology
Timelike Liouville disk path integrals in fixed K-representation produce Hartle-Hawking-like states, a conjecture for all-loop wavefunctions, and a K-independent inner product for 2D quantum cosmology.
