Abstract

We consider the partition function and correlation functions in the bosonic and supersymmetric Yang-Mills matrix models with compact semi-simple gauge group. In the supersymmetric case, we show that the partition function converges when D=4,6D=4,6 and 10, and that correlation functions of degree k<kc=2(D3)k< k_c=2(D-3) are convergent independently of the group. In the bosonic case we show that the partition function is convergent when DDcD \geq D_c, and that correlation functions of degree k<kck < k_c are convergent, and calculate DcD_c and kck_c for each group, thus extending our previous results for SU(N). As a special case these results establish that the partition function and a set of correlation functions in the IKKT IIB string matrix model are convergent.
