We introduce a novel spinorial description for the higher-spin gauge theory induced by the IKKT matrix model on an FLRW spacetime with Lorentzian signature, called Lorentzian $\mathfrak{hs}$-IKKT theory. The new description is based on Weyl…
We discuss a $(3{+}1)$-dimensional covariant quantum space-time describing a FLRW cosmology with Big Bounce, obtained by a projection of the fuzzy hyperboloid $H^4_n$. This provides a background solution of the IKKT matrix model with mass…
We study the one-loop effective action of the higher-spin gauge theory induced by the IKKT matrix model on a $\mathcal{M}^{1,3}\times \mathcal{K}$ background, where $\mathcal{M}^{1,3}$ is an FLRW cosmological spacetime brane and…
A geometric formalism is developed which allows to describe the non-linear regime of higher-spin gravity emerging on a cosmological quantum space-time in the IKKT matrix model. The vacuum solutions are Ricci-flat up to an effective vacuum…
We consider the fuzzy 4-sphere $S_N^4$ as a background in the IKKT matrix model and explore the relation between $S_N^4$ and fuzzy twistor space in the semi-classical limit. A novel description for the IKKT-matrix model in terms of…
We study perturbations of 4-dimensional fuzzy spheres as backgrounds in the IKKT or IIB matrix model. Gauge fields and metric fluctuations are identified among the excitation modes with lowest spin, supplemented by a tower of higher-spin…
We discuss recent endeavours in connecting twistor theory to higher-spin theories and the IKKT- matrix model. Starting with a brief review on higher-spin algebra hs in four-dimensional target space, we elucidate how higher-spin symmetry can…
Invariant and covariant forms of the quark-antiquark interaction derived by the method of Eichten and Feinberg are considered. Relations between the various terms imposed by Lorentz transformation constraints, here called Gromes relations,…
We propose a Lorentz-covariant Yang-Mills spin-gauge theory, where the function valued Dirac matrices play the role of a non-scalar Higgs-field. As symmetry group we choose $SU(2) \times U(1)$. After symmetry breaking a non-scalar…
The gravitational dynamics of 3+1 dimensional covariant quantum spacetime in the IKKT or IIB matrix model is studied at one loop, combining the Yang-Mills-type matrix action with the induced Einstein-Hilbert action. This combined action…
We consider general $k=-1$ FLRW covariant quantum spacetimes $\mathcal{M}^{3,1} \times \mathcal{K}$ with fuzzy extra dimensions $\mathcal{K}$ as classical solutions of the IKKT matrix model. The coupled equations of motion are recast in…
We introduce and analyse a few examples of massless higher spin theories in Minkowski spacetime. They are defined in terms of master fields, i.e. fields defined in the whole phase space. More specifically we introduce the HS YM-like…
We explore the semi-classical relation between the fuzzy 4-hyperboloid $H_N^4$ and non-compact quantized twistor space $\mathbb{P}^{1,2}$ at large $N$. This provides two backgrounds $N$ of the IKKT matrix model via two natural stereographic…
We discuss the reconstruction of generic 3+1-dimensional space-time geometries from covariant quantum spaces as backgrounds in the IKKT matrix model. An explicit recipe to realize generic classical geometries is provided. Even though this…
This paper aims to clarify conceptual aspects of emergent structure in IKKT-type matrix models. Even without any adjustable parameters in the action, non-trivial matrix vacua do acquire a meaningful coupling constant, as well as two…
In this introductory review, we argue that a quantum structure of space-time naturally entails a higher-spin theory, to avoid significant Lorentz violation. A suitable framework is provided by Yang-Mills matrix models, which allow to…
We review the attempt to construct massless gauge field theories in Minkowski spacetime that go under the name of HS-YM. We present their actions and their symmetries. We motivate their gravitational interpretation. In particular we show…
We construct the double copy of the chiral higher-spin theory. It is a Lorentz invariant theory with the little group spectrum given by the tensor square of the chiral higher-spin theory spectrum. Moreover, its interactions factorise in…
It is shown that the coefficient of the cubic interaction vertex, in higher spin Lagrangians, has a very simple form when written in terms of spinor helicity products. The result for a higher-spin field, of spin $\lambda$, is equal to the…
A novel analysis of the gauge theory of the local Lorentz group is implemented both in flat and in curved space-time, and the resulting dynamics is analyzed in view of the geometrical interpretation of the gauge potential. The Yang-Mills…
