Abstract

Some properties of N = 2 superstrings on AdS₃ × N are studied. Their spectrum has the same pattern as 2-d CFTs in the moduli space of symmetric products M^P/S_P, where p is associated with the number of long fundamental strings required to construct the AdS₃ background, and M is the spacetime CFT corresponding to short string excitations of a single long string. Worldsheet operators associated with w long strings correspond to twisted sectors of M^P/S_P.
