Partition functions of the tensionless string

Abstract We consider string theory on AdS3 × S3 × 𝕋4 in the tensionless limit, with one unit of NS-NS flux. This theory is conjectured to describe the symmetric product orbifold CFT. We consider the string on different Euclidean backgrounds such as thermal AdS3, the BTZ black hole, conical defects a...
