Two-Dimensional Black Holes As Open Strings: A New Realization of the ADS/CFT Correspondence
Physics Letters, Section B: Nuclear, Elementary Particle and High-Energy Physics
Abstract
We show that weak-coupled two-dimensional dilation gravity on anti-de Sitter space can be described by the dynamics of an open string. Neumann and Dirichlet boundary conditions for the string lead two different realizations of the anti-de Sitter/Conformal Field Theory correspondence. In particular, in the Dirichlet case the thermodynamical entropy of two-dimensional black holes can be exactly reproduced by counting the string states.
