Einstein gravity from a matrix integral -- Part II

High Energy Physics - Theory 2025-07-29 v2

Abstract

Using supersymmetric localization, we compute the partition function and some protected correlators of the polarized IKKT matrix model. Surprisingly, we find that the original IKKT model is different from polarized IKKT in the limit of vanishing mass deformation. We study different regimes of the localization results and recover the electrostatic problem which defines the gravity dual.
