DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/UKYhepth/64/
 ">The Virasoro Minimal String</a>\nby Lorenz Eberhardt (U. Amsterdam) as p
 art of Theoretical Physics Seminars (Kentucky)\n\nLecture held in CP 303.\
 n\nAbstract\nI will introduce a critical string theory in two dimensions a
 nd demonstrate that this theory\, viewed as two-dimensional quantum gravit
 y on the worldsheet\, is equivalent to a double-scaled matrix integral\, w
 hich provides the holographic description. The worldsheet theory consists 
 of Liouville CFT with central charge c\\ge 25 coupled to timelike Liouvill
 e CFT with central charge 26-c. The double-scaled matrix integral has as i
 ts leading density of states the universal Cardy density of primaries in a
  two-dimensional CFT\, which gives the theory its name. The talk is based 
 on joint work with Scott Collier\, Beatrix Mühlmann and Victor Rodriguez.
 \n\nTalk is online but we will meet in CP 303 to watch it.\n
