Description

We study the exact construction of D-branes in lorentzian AdS3. We start by defining a family of conformal field theories that gives a natural euclidean version of the SL(2,R) CFT and does not correspond to H3+, the analytic continuation of AdS3. We argue that one can recuperate the exact CFT results of lorentzian AdS3, upon an analytic continuation in the moduli space of these conformal field theories. Then we construct exact boundary states for various symmetric and symmetry-breaking D-branes in AdS3
