abstract

We develop a novel approach to non-relativistic closed bosonic string theory that is based on a string $1/c^2$ expansion of the relativistic string, where $c$ is the speed of light. This approach has the benefit that one does not need to take a limit of a string in a near-critical Kalb-Ramond background. The $1/c^2$-expanded Polyakov action at next-to-leading order reproduces the known action of non-relativistic string theory provided that the target space obeys an appropriate foliation constraint. We compute the spectrum in a flat target space, with one circle direction that is wound by the string, up to next-to-leading order and show that it reproduces the spectrum of the Gomis-Ooguri string.

  1. Non-relativistic quantum strings from gauged WZW models

    hep-th 2025-05 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A chiral null gauging of Nappi-Witten WZW models yields a closed string with a Gomis-Ooguri-like spectrum, but with different left- and right-moving sectors.

  2. Non-relativistic Strings: Classical solutions and exactly solvable models

    hep-th 2025-04 reject novelty 4.0 of 10

    Non-relativistic strings on R x S2 admit spinning and pulsating solutions whose leading and next-to-leading order dynamics are cast as Neumann-Rosochatius-like solvable models with Bohr-Sommerfeld energy spectra.

  3. An Introduction to String Newton-Cartan Holography and Integrability

    hep-th 2026-03 accept novelty 3.0 of 10

    String Newton-Cartan holography, the non-relativistic limit of the AdS/CFT correspondence, is organized and reviewed around five consistency conditions, with its classical solutions, spectrum, and integrability structure.
