Journal ArticleDOI
Some exact solutions of string theory in four and five dimensions
TL;DR: In this article, several classes of exact classical solutions of critical bosonic string theory are constructed as twisted products of one euclidean and one minkowskian 2D black hole coset.
Journal ArticleDOI
Equivariant topological sigma models
Petr Hořava,Petr Hořava +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a generalization of topological sigma models suitable for coupling to topological open strings is presented, where the targets are Kahler manifolds with a real structure, compatible with the Kahler metric.
Book ChapterDOI
Topological Strings and QCD in Two Dimensions
TL;DR: In this article, a new class of topological sigma models, whose path integral is localized to the moduli space of harmonic maps from the worldsheet to the target, is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Two dimensional stringy black holes with one asymptotically flat domain
TL;DR: In this paper, a theory of unoriented open and closed strings in a black hole background, with just one asymptotically flat domain and a time-like orbifold singularity at the origin is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Two-dimensional string theory and the topological torus
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyze topological string theory on a two-dimensional torus, focusing on symmetries in the matter sector, and find a nilpotent charge which behaves like a spacetime topological BRST operator.
