There are several applications of the non-critical string. Through the [[AdS/CFT correspondence]] it provides a holographic description of gauge theories which are asymptotically free.{{Citation needed|date=February 2007}}<ref name=":0">{{Cite journal|last=Kiritsis|first=Elias|s2cid=2236596|date=26 Jan 2009|title=Dissecting the string theory dual of QCD|journal=Fortschritte der Physik|volume=57|issue=5–7|pages=369–417|arxiv=0901.1772|doi=10.1002/prop.200900011|bibcode=2009ForPh..57..396K}}</ref> It may then have applications to the study of the [[Quantum chromodynamics|QCD]], the theory of strong interactions between [[quarks]].<ref name=":0" /> Another area of much research is two-dimensional string theory which provides simple [[toy model]]s of [[string theory]].
