    We review the derivation of a general formula for the Liouville dressing factor in the boundary 3-point tachyon correlator with c < 1 degenerate matter

    Non-critical string pentagon equations and their solutions

    Full text link
    We derive pentagon type relations for the 3-point boundary tachyon correlation functions in the non-critical open string theory with generic c_{matter} < 1 and study their solutions in the case of FZZ branes. A new general formula for the Liouville 3-point factor is derived.Comment: 18 pages, harvmac; misprints corrected, section 3.2 extended, a new general formula for the Liouville 3-point factor adde

    On the Null Vectors in the Spectra of the 2D Integrable Hierarchies

    Full text link
    We propose an alternative description of the spectrum of local fields in the classical limit of the integrable quantum field theories. It is close to similar constructions used in the geometrical treatment of W-gravities. Our approach provides a systematic way of deriving the null-vectors that appear in this construction. We present explicit results for the case of the A_1^{1}-(m)KdV and the A_2^{2}-(m)KdV hierarchies, different classical limits of 2D CFT's. In the former case our results coincide with the classical limit of the construction of Babelon, Bernard and Smirnov.Some hints about quantization and off-critical treatment are also given.Comment: 15 pages, LATEX file, to appear in Phys.Lett.
