In this work we propose an exact solution of the c=1 Liouville model, i.e. of the world-sheet theory that describes the homogeneous decay of a closed string tachyon. Our expressions are obtained through careful extrapolation from the correlators of Liouville theory with c > 25. In the c=1 limit, we find two different theories which differ by the signature of Liouville field. The Euclidean limit coincides with the interacting c=1 theory that was constructed by Runkel and Watts as a limit of unitary minimal models. The couplings for the Lorentzian limit are new. In contrast to the behavior at c > 1, amplitudes in both c=1 models are non-analytic in the momenta and consequently they are not related by Wick rotation.

On the Virasoro Crossing Kernels at Rational Central Charge
At rational central charge, the Virasoro crossing kernels decompose into two admissible square-root-branched kernels; the physical c≤1 kernels are derived for the first time.

Holographic entanglement entropy with conformal boundary conditions
In AdS3 with conformal boundary conditions, holographic entanglement entropy is still the minimal-surface area over 4G_N, and the dual Liouville plus T Tbar theory gives entropy governed by the effective central charge c_eff.

The Runkel-Watts string
The Runkel-Watts string is a solvable family of two-dimensional string theories whose all-genus amplitudes are generated by SU(2) Yang-Mills TQFT data combined with VMS quantum volumes, and it has a dual matrix-integr...

Timelike Liouville theory and AdS$_3$ gravity at finite cutoff
Proposes that AdS3 gravity at finite cutoff is dual to a CFT2 coupled to timelike Liouville theory deformed by a marginal operator, with checks via semiclassical partition functions and EOM matching.
