String Theory Group at CPHT École Polytechnique

String theory, conformal field theory and cosmology

Current research focuses on:

String Compactifications with or without fluxes

Orientifolds, string model building and supersymmetry breaking

String Theory in time-dependent backgrounds

String and brane cosmology

D-branes in curved backgrounds and Boundary CFT

Large-N gauge theories, holography and bulk-boundary correspondence.

Here you will find the recent publications of the group from SPIRES.

Here you can find the slides for the 'Basic Constituents: Strings and Branes' workgroup at the Trieste Winter School 2005 (M.Petropoulos and V.Schomerus)
