Recently\, a (perturbative) CFT dual for bosonic string theory in AdS3 was proposed\, based on a deformed symmetric product CFT. By computi ng the partition function of long strings in the bulk\, I will argue how t he worldsheet path integral naturally organizes itself into the coulomb-ga s expansion in the dual CFT\, effectively deriving the duality from the wo rldsheet.\n\nhttps://indico.cern.ch/event/1446038/ LOCATION:CERN 4/2-037 - TH meeting room URL:https://indico.cern.ch/event/1446038/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
