Abstract

We calculate numerically the torus one-point string diagram in the two-dimensional string cosmology background by decomposing the one-point functions in c=1c=1 and c=25c=25 Liouville CFT into torus one-point Virasoro conformal blocks and integrating over the fundamental domain of the torus moduli space. We find a remarkably simple result as a function of the outgoing closed string energy. This torus one-point diagram is expected to contribute to the one-point cosmological wavefunction at order gsg_s, and to the four-point cosmological wavefunction at order gs2g_s^2 through the disconnected product of the torus one-point diagram and the sphere three-point diagram.
