  • We propose a modification of the Nambu-Goto action for the bosonic string which is compatible with the existence of a minimum area at the Planck scale. The result is a phenomenological action based on the observation that LQG tells us that areas of two-surfaces are operators in quantum geometry and are bounded from below. This leads us to a string action which is similar to that of bimetric gravity. We provide formulations of the bimetric string action for both the Nambu-Goto (second order) and Polyakov (first order) formulations. We explore the classical solutions of this action and its quantization and relate it to the conventional string solutions. We further construct a string action in which the effect of the background geometry is described in terms of the pullback of the bulk connection, which encodes the bulk geometry, to the worldsheet. The resulting string action is in the form of a gauged sigma model, where the spacetime co-ordinates are now vectors which transform under the Poincaré group $ISO(D,1)$. This requires the introduction of an auxiliary bulk co-ordinate which has a natural interpretation as a holographic or scale direction. We discuss possible cosmological implications of such a large scale emergent dimension.
