We apply the gradient expansion approximation to the light-cone gauge, obtaining a separate universe picture at non-linear order in perturbation theory within this framework. Thereafter, we use it to generalize the $\delta N$ formalism in…
A matrix modeling formulation for translation-invariant noncommutative gauge theories is given in the setting of differential graded algebras and quantum groups. Translation-invariant products are discussed in the setting of…
We elucidate the connection between the N=1 beta-deformed SYM theory and noncommutativity. Our starting point is the T-duality generating transformation involved in constructing the gravity duals of both beta-deformed and noncommutative…
We study a noncommutative gauge theory on a fuzzy four-sphere. The idea is to use a matrix model with a fifth-rank Chern-Simons term and to expand matrices around the fuzzy four-sphere which corresponds to a classical solution of this…
We describe a unitary matrix model which is constructed from discrete analogs of the usual projective modules over the noncommutative torus and use it to construct a lattice version of noncommutative gauge theory. The model is a…
In this talk we discuss enveloping algebra based noncommutative gauge field theory, constructed at the first order in noncommutative parameter theta, as an effective, anomaly free theory, with one-loop renormalizable gauge sector. Limits on…
A new class of deformation of the matrix model of M-theory is considered. The deformation is analogous to the so-called $\b$-deformation of $D=3+1$, $\mN=4$ Super Yang-Mills theory, which preserves the conformal symmetry. It is shown that…
A proposal for the matrix model formulation of the M-theory on a space with a boundary is given. A general machinery for modding out a symmetry in M(atrix) theory is used for a Z_2 symmetry changing the sign of the X_1 coordinate. The…
We show that noncommuting electric fields occur naturally in $\theta$-expanded noncommutative gauge theories. Using this noncommutativity, which is field dependent, and a hamiltonian generalisation of the Seiberg-Witten Map, the algebraic…
We study a membrane -- anti-membrane system in Matrix theory. It in fact exhibits the tachyon instability. By suitably representing this configuration, we obtain a (2+1)-dimensional U(2) gauge theory with a 't Hooft's twisted boundary…
We study the space-time symmetries and transformation properties of the non-commutative U(1) gauge theory, by using Noether charges. We carry out our analysis by keeping an open view on the possible ways $\theta^{\mu \nu}$ could transform.…
Using the formalism of noncommutative geometric gauge theory based on the superconnection concept, we construct a new type of vector gauge theory possessing a shift-like symmetry and the usual gauge symmetry. The new shift-like symmetry is…
We study the dynamics of an open membrane with a cylindrical topology, in the background of a constant three form, whose boundary is attached to p-branes. The boundary closed string is coupled to a two form potential to ensure gauge…
We consider supermembranes ending on M5-branes, with the aim of deriving the appropriate matrix theories describing different situations. Special attention is given to the case of non-vanishing (selfdual) C-field. We identify the relevant…
We give a simple proof of why there is a Matrix theory approximation for a membrane shaped like an arbitrary Riemann surface. As corollaries, we show that noncompact membranes cannot be approximated by matrices and that the Poisson algebra…
We discuss noncommutative gauge theory from the generalized geometry point of view. We argue that the equivalence between the commutative and semiclassically noncommutative DBI actions is naturally encoded in the generalized geometry of…
Membrane scattering in m(atrix) theory is related to dynamics in three-dimensional $SU(2)$ gauge theory, with transfer of $p^{11}$ being an instanton process. We calculate the instanton amplitude and find precise agreement with the…
We explore algebraic properties of noncommutative frames. The concept of noncommutative frames is due to Le Bruyn, who introduced it in connection with noncommutative covers of the Connes-Consani arithmetic site.
We demonstrate the precise numerical correspondence between long range scattering of supergravitons and membranes in supergravity in the infinite momentum frame and in M(atrix)-Theory, both in 11 dimensions and for toroidal…
After a brief review of matrix theory compactification leading to noncommutative supersymmetric Yang-Mills gauge theory, we present solutions for the fundamental and adjoint sections on a two-dimensional twisted quantum torus in two…
