Interface Minimal Model Holography and Topological String Theory

Abstract

We study the dynamics of 2d fermions coupled to 3d Chern-Simons gauge fields. For SU(N)SU(N) gauge group and fermions in the fundamental representation, the resulting interfaces are closely related to WNW_N minimal models. We give an holographic description of the interfaces within the A-model Topological String Theory. The model has exotic integrability properties, which allow us to propose an exact holographic match of all sphere correlation functions of meson operators. This construction embeds Minimal Model Holography in String Theory.
