We reconsider and analyze in detail the problem of particle production in the time dependent background of $c=1$ matrix model where the Fermi sea drains away at late time. In addition to the moving mirror method, which has already been…
We consider the canonical quantization scheme for $c \leq 1$ ($(p,q)$ -) string theories and compare it with what is known from matrix model approach. We derive explicitly a trivial ($\equiv $ topological) solution. We discuss a ``dressing"…
We study the perturbative $S$-matrix of the $c=1$ string and show that it admits a description in terms of a double-scaled (0+0)-dimensional matrix integral based on the spectral curve $\mathsf{x}(z) = 2\sqrt{2}\cos(z)$,…
We study the c_L=25 limit, which corresponds to c=1 string theory, of bulk and boundary correlation functions of Liouville theory with FZZT boundary conditions. This limit is singular and requires a renormalization of vertex operators. We…

We consider a family of conforming space-time finite element discretizations for the wave equation based on splines of maximal regularity in time. Traditional techniques may require a CFL condition to guarantee stability. Recent works by O.…
In perturbative string theory, one is generally interested in asymptotic observables, such as the S-matrix in flat spacetime, and boundary correlation functions in anti-de Sitter spacetime. However, there are backgrounds in which such…
String equations of the $p$-th generalized Kontsevich model and the compactified $c = 1$ string theory are re-examined in the language of the Toda lattice hierarchy. As opposed to a hypothesis postulated in the literature, the generalized…
