Abstract
We construct and study a matrix model that describes two dimensional string\ntheory in the Euclidean black hole background. A conjecture of V. Fateev, A.\nand Al. Zamolodchikov, relating the black hole background to condensation of\nvortices (winding modes around Euclidean time) plays an important role in the\nconstruction. We use the matrix model to study quantum corrections to the\nthermodynamics of two dimensional black holes.\n

An exact conformal field theory describing a black hole in two-dimensional space-time is found as an SL(2,{ital openR})/U(1) gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten model, which should be regarded as an analog of the extreme Reissner-Nordstroem black hole of four-dimensional general relativity.

This analysis uses the analysis of couplings in string theory and the mass of the two-dimensional Euclidean black hole to argue for the finiteness of the string perturbation expansion around these backgrounds.
