/ Abstract
We study the (type 0B) $\mathcal{N}=1$ supersymmetric complex Liouville string ($\text{S}\mathbb{C}\text{LS}$), a supersymmetric extension of the bosonic complex Liouville string ($\mathbb{C}\text{LS}$). We compute the sphere three-point amplitudes (including NS-NS-NS and NS-R-R types) and find they share the same form as the sphere three-point amplitude of the bosonic $\mathbb{C}\text{LS}$. Analysis of the analytic structure of the NS-NS-NS-NS four-point amplitude and the higher equations of motion also yields results identical to the bosonic case. Based on these findings, we propose that the dual matrix model for the $\text{S}\mathbb{C}\text{LS}$ is the same as that for the bosonic $\mathbb{C}\text{LS}$. We also investigate a related theory $\widehat{\text{S}\mathbb{C}\text{LS}}$, which differs in the gauged worldsheet supersymmetry. A parallel analysis is performed for $\widehat{\text{S}\mathbb{C}\text{LS}}$, and a candidate for its dual matrix model is proposed. We then carry out a partial numerical evaluation of the moduli space integral, which provides further evidence for both the proposals of the dual matrix model regarding $\text{S}\mathbb{C}\text{LS}$ and $\widehat{\text{S}\mathbb{C}\text{LS}}$.
