M(embrane) theory on $T^9$

High Energy Physics - Theory 2010-11-19 v3

Abstract

An `algebraic' approach to M-theory is briefly reviewed, and a proposal is made for a similar algebraic structure underlying the T9T^9 compactification of `M(embrane) theory', i.e. the M(atrix) model with area-preserving diffeomorphism gauge group.
