An Attempt Towards Field Theory of D0 Branes -- Quantum M-Field Theory

High Energy Physics - Theory 2008-11-26 v1

Abstract

I discuss my recent attempt in search of a new framework for quantum field theory of D branes. After explaining some motivations in the background of this project, I present, as a first step towards our goal, a second-quantized reformulation of the U(N) Yang-Mills quantum mechanics in which the D0-brane creation-and-annihilation fields connecting theories with different N are introduced. Physical observables are expressed in terms of bilinear forms of the D0 fields. The large N limit is briefly treated using this new formalism.
