Abstract:
We present evidence for the factorization of the world-shee
t path integrals for 2d con-
formal field theories on the disk into bulk and boundary contr
ibutions. This factorization
is then used to reinterpret a shift in closed string backgrou
nds in terms of boundary de-
formations in background independent open string field theo
ry. We give a proof of the
factorization conjecture in the cases where the background
is represented by WZW and
related models
