SUMMARY:Winding condensates in string theory on AdS - Indranil Halder\, Ha

DESCRIPTION:We will discuss the role of various winding condensates in str
 ing theory on AdS₃ at non-zero temperature. First we will prove that a m
 arginal deformation of free theory on the cylinder consisting of a winding
  condensate on the space circle of winding ±1 is equivalent to usual sigm
 a model description of the worldsheet CFT of empty AdS₃ in terms of SL(2
 \,R) WZW model. This equivalence is a strong weak duality in the sense of 
 α’. Given that AdS/CFT is also strong weak duality in α’\, we will d
 iscuss the possibility of obtaining the spacetime CFT dual from the theory
  on long strings in winding description. In the later part of the talk\, w
 e will focus on deformation consisting of two winding condensates in space
  and time circle. Near Hagedron temperature such a deformation would be in
 terpreted as the analog of Horowitz-Polchinski like description. We will p
 resent detailed results on a likely new CFT near Hawking-Page transition.
