Title: Asymptotically Free AdS3/CFT2

Journal Article · · Journal of High Energy Physics (Online)

We propose a new AdS3/CFT2 duality, in which the bulk string theory has a target spacetime AdS3 times a squashed three-sphere $$S$$$^{3}_{b}$$, and the dual CFT2 is a symmetric product of sigma models on RΦ × $$S$$$^{3}_{b}$$, deformed by a Φ-dependent Z2 twist operator. The duality maps the asymptotic region of AdS3 to the region Φ → ∞, where the twist interaction in the CFT2 turns off. The AdS3 backgrounds in question have RAdS < ℓs, and so lie on the string side of the string/black hole correspondence transition. As a consequence, the high energy density of states consists of a string gas in AdS3 rather than an ensemble of BTZ black holes. Furthermore, this property allows us to derive the dual CFT2 by a systematic analysis of the worldsheet string theory on AdS3.
