We show how non-compact space-time (ZZ branes) emerges as a limit of compact space-time (FZZT branes) for specific ratios between the square of the boundary cosmological constant and the bulk cosmological constant in the (2,2m - 1) minimal…
We study boundary states in (p,q) minimal superstring theory, combining the explicit form of matter wave functions. Within the modular bootstrap framework, Cardy states of (p,q) minimal superconformal field theory are completely determined…
Minimal string theory has a number of FZZT brane boundary states; one for each Cardy state of the minimal model. It was conjectured by Seiberg and Shih that all branes in a minimal string theory could be expressed as a linear combination of…
We show how a boundary state different from the (1,1) Cardy state may be realised in the (m,m+1) minimal string by the introduction of an auxiliary matrix into the standard two hermitian matrix model. This boundary is a natural…
We initiate a systematic study of boundary conditions in conformal field theories with target space supersymmetry. The WZNW model on GL(1|1) is used as a prototypical example for which we find the complete set of maximally symmetric branes.…
We study conformal boundary conditions and corresponding one-point functions of the N=2 super-Liouville theory using both conformal and modular bootstrap methods. We have found both continuous (`FZZT-branes') and discrete (`ZZ-branes')…
We study FZZT-branes and open string amplitudes in (p,q) minimal string theory. We focus on the simplest boundary changing operators in two-matrix models, and identify the corresponding operators in worldsheet theory through the comparison…
Type 0A string theory in the (2,4k) superconformal minimal model backgrounds, with background ZZ D-branes or R-R fluxes can be formulated non-perturbatively. The branes and fluxes have a description as threshold bound states in an…

We derive boundary states which describe configurations of multiple parallel branes with arbitrary open string states interactions in bosonic string theory. This is obtained by a careful discussion of the factorization of open/closed string…
For the bosonic string on the torus we compute boundary states describing branes with not trivial homology class in presence of constant closed and open background. It turns out that boundary states with non trivial open background…
We study the annulus amplitudes of (p,q) minimal string theory. Focusing on the ZZ-FZZT annulus amplitude as a target-space probe of the ZZ brane, we use it to confirm that the ZZ branes are localized in the strong-coupling region. Along…
The algebraic classification of Cardy for boundary states on a $G/H$ coset CFT of a compact group G, is geometrically realized on the corresponding manifold resulting from gauging the WZW model. The branes consist of H orbits of quantized G…
In this article, applying different types of boundary conditions; Dirichlet, Neumann, or Mixed, on open strings we realize various new brane bound states in string theory. Calculating their interactions with other D-branes, we find their…
For the case of the SU(2) WZW model at level one, the boundary states that only preserve the conformal symmetry are analysed. Under the assumption that the usual Cardy boundary states as well as their marginal deformations are consistent,…
We study both bosonic and supersymmetric (p,q) minimal models coupled to Liouville theory using the ground ring and the various branes of the theory. From the FZZT brane partition function, there emerges a unified, geometric description of…
The structures in target space geometry that correspond to conformally invariant boundary conditions in WZW theories are determined both by studying the scattering of closed string states and by investigating the algebra of open string…
The boundary OSP(1|2) WZNW model possesses two types of branes, which are localized on supersymmetric Euclidean AdS$_2$ and on two-dimensional superspheres. We compute the coupling of closed strings to these branes with two different…
Recently, Giusto and Halpern reported the open-string description of a certain basic class of untwisted open WZW strings, including their associated non-commutative geometry and open-string KZ equations. In this paper, we combine this…
Using boundary states we derive the presence of (chiral) fermions on the intersection of type 0 D-branes. The corresponding anomalous couplings on the branes are then computed. Furthermore, we discuss systems of branes sitting at $A_n$…
