Matrix Theory Compactification on Noncommutative T

چکیده
In this paper, we construct gauge bundles on a noncommutative toroidal orbifold Tθ/Z2. First, we explicitly construct a bundle with constant curvature connections on a noncommutative Tθ following Rieffel’s method. Then, applying the appropriate quotient conditions for its Z2 orbifold, we find a Connes-Douglas-Schwarz type solution of matrix theory compactified on Tθ/Z2. When we consider two copies of a bundle on T 4 θ which admits a constant curvature connection, the resulting Higgs branch moduli space of equivariant constant curvature connections becomes an ordinary toroidal orbifold T/Z2.

Noncommutative Geometry and Matrix Theory: Compactification on Tori
We study toroidal compactification of Matrix theory, using ideas and results of noncommutative geometry. We generalize this to compactification on the noncommutative torus, explain the classification of these backgrounds, and argue that they correspond in supergravity to tori with constant background three-form tensor field. The paper includes an introduction for mathematicians to the IKKT form...
متن کاملMatrix Theory on Noncommutative Torus
We consider the compactification of Matrix theory on tori with background anti-symmetric tensor field. Douglas and Hull have recently discussed how noncommutative geometry appears on the tori. In this paper, we demonstrate the concrete construction of this compactification of Matrix theory in a similar way to that previously given by Taylor.
متن کاملD-branes and the Noncommutative Torus
We show that in certain superstring compactifications, gauge theories on noncommutative tori will naturally appear as D-brane world-volume theories. This gives strong evidence that they are well-defined quantum theories. It also gives a physical derivation of the identification proposed by Connes, Douglas and Schwarz of Matrix theory compactification on the noncommutative torus with M theory co...
متن کاملDiscrete Noncommutative Gauge Theory
A review of the relationships between matrix models and noncommutative gauge theory is presented. A lattice version of noncommutative Yang-Mills theory is constructed and used to examine some generic properties of noncommutative quantum field theory, such as UV/IR mixing and the appearence of gauge-invariant open Wilson line operators. Morita equivalence in this class of models is derived and u...
متن کاملTowards a Noncommutative Geometric Approach to Matrix Compactification
In this paper we study generic M(atrix) theory compactifications that are specified by a set of quotient conditions. A procedure is proposed, which both associates an algebra to each compactification and leads deductively to general solutions for the matrix variables. The notion of noncommutative geometry on the dual space is central to this construction. As examples we apply this procedure to ...
