TTbar deformation and the light-cone gauge
read the original abstract
The homogeneous inviscid Burgers equation which determines the spectrum of a TTbar deformed model has a natural interpretation as the condition of the gauge invariance of the target space-time energy and momentum of a (non-critical) string theory quantised in a generalised uniform light-cone gauge which depends on the deformation parameter. As a simple application of the light-cone gauge interpretation we derive the TTbar deformed Lagrangian for a system of any number of scalars, fermions and chiral bosons with an arbitrary potential. We find that the TTbar deformation is driven by the canonical Noether stress-energy tensor but not the covariant one.

Tree-level S matrix for $\lambda$-deformed AdS3 strings
For 0 ≤ λ < 1 the bosonic tree-level S-matrix of λ-deformed AdS3 strings remains integrable via cancellation of non-elastic processes, but becomes ill-defined as λ → 1 even though the geometry matches the non-Abelian T-dual.

On the $AdS_3\times S^3\times S^3\times S^1$ dressing factors
Dressing factors are proposed for the S-matrix of massive worldsheet excitations in AdS3×S3×S3×S1 with mixed RR/NSNS flux that satisfy crossing, unitarity, and reproduce perturbative results for any radius ratio.
