Unitary matrix model for toroidal compactifications of M theory
A unitary matrix model is proposed as the large-N matrix formulation of M theory on flat space with toroidal topology. The model reproduces the motion of elementary D-particles on the compact space, and admits membrane states with nonzero wrapping around nontrivial 2-tori even at finite N. † [email protected] The recently proposed matrix model approach to M-theory consists of the dimen...
متن کاملMatrix Theory , U - Duality and Toroidal Compactifications of M - Theory
Using U-duality, the properties of the matrix theories corresponding to the compactification of M-theory on T d are investigated. The couplings of the d + 1 dimensional effective Super-Yang-Mills theory to all the M-theory moduli is deduced and the spectrum of BPS branes in the SYM gives the corresponding spectrum of the matrix theory. Known results are recovered for d ≤ 5 and predictions for d...
متن کاملCompactifications of M-theory
We discuss Poincaré three-brane solutions in D = 5 M-Theory compactifications on Calabi-Yau (CY) threefolds with G-fluxes. We show that the vector moduli freeze at an attractor point. In the case with background flux only, the spacetime geometry contains a zero volume singularity with the three-brane and the CY space shrinking simultaneously to a point. This problem can be avoided by including ...
متن کاملSuperpotentials from flux compactifications of M-theory
In flux compactifications of M-theory a superpotential is generated whose explicit form depends on the structure group of the 7-dimensional internal manifold. In this note, we discuss superpotentials for the structure groups: G2, SU(3) or SU(2). For the G2 case all internal fluxes have to vanish. For SU(3) structures, the non-zero flux components entering the superpotential describe an effectiv...
متن کاملAccelerating cosmologies from M/String theory compactifications
We point out that the solution of (4 + n)-dimensional gravity coupled to the dilaton and an n-form field strength can give rise to a flat 4-dimensional universe (with a scale factor) of the type proposed recently under time dependent compactifications. The compact internal spaces could be hyperbolic, flat or spherical and the solution is identical to the space-like two brane or S2-brane. We sho...
