Boundary States for AdS₂ Branes in AdS₃

  • 1. ROR icon California Institute of Technology

Abstract

We construct boundary states for the AdS₂ D-branes in AdS₃. We show that, in the semi-classical limit, the boundary states correctly reproduce geometric configurations of these branes. We use the boundary states to compute the one loop free energy of open string stretched between the branes. The result agrees precisely with the open string computation in hep-th/0106129.
