Boundary action of the H3+ model

We find the boundary action for Euclidean AdS2 D-branes in H3+. This action is consistent with the D-branes' symmetries and with the H3+-Liouville relation for disc correlators. It can be used for performing free-field calculations in the H3+ model with boundaries. We explicitly perform the Coulomb-like integrals which appear in the free-field calculation of the bulk one-point function, and find agreement with previously known conformal bootstrap results.

Two AdS2 branes in the Euclidean AdS3

We compute the density of open strings stretching between AdS2 branes in the Euclidean AdS3. This is done by solving the factorization constraint of a degenerate boundary field, and the result is checked by a Cardy-type computation. We mention applications to branes in the Minkowskian AdS3 and its cigar coset.

Some comments on Anti-de Sitter D-branes

We present some preliminary investigations about the AdS2*S2 D3-branes in AdS3*S3. We analyse the quadratic fluctuations of Dirac-Born-Infeld action around a given semi-classical D-brane configuration and compare them with results obtained by using conformal field theory techniques. We finally study classical motions of open strings attached to those D-branes and analyse the role of the spectral flow in this context.
