abstract
The two-point string amplitude at tree level in flat spacetime reproduces the expected expression for free particles. This has been proven by Erbin, Maldacena and Skliros in [JHEP 07 (2019) 139] by two methods. Here, we provide an alternative proof of this result. Our method consists in considering a timelike Liouville direction as a regularization parameter, which suffices to break time translation invariance and, at the same time, to stabilize the residual conformal symmetry in the worldsheet. This allows taking a limit and restoring Poincare symmetry in a controlled way, thus reproducing the correct expression of the two-point amplitude.

Two-point tree-level string amplitudes as AdS transition amplitudes
Two-point open and closed string amplitudes are algebraically recast, in 't Hooft-like tensionless limits, into sums of AdS scalar transition amplitudes with coupling constants governed by worldsheet curvatures.
