Description
I will describe work in progress w/ B.Knighton, A.Kanargias,M. Usatyuk on finding a stringy embedding of ensemble-averaging. Specifically we consider the recent duality between Narain T^c CFTs averaged over moduli space and exotic AdS_3 U(1)^c x U(1)^c gravity. We generalise this by performing the average over the symmetric product orbifold of T^c where the bulk dual now must include a discrete gauge group.
By considering the case c=4 and the addition of susy we make contact to the duality of the tensionless string on AdS_3 x S^3 x T^4 and the symmetric orbifold orbifold of T^4.
