Worldsheet approach to problems in string cosmology
This thesis focuses on applying worldsheet conformal field theories to study problems of time-dependence and moduli stabilisation as motivated by string cosmology. Firstly, we construct exact string backgrounds using conformal field theories where the compact sectors are chosen such that the massles...
