TITLE Matrix Models, noncommutative gauge theory, and gravity
(in English)
SPEAKER Dr. Harold Steinacker

DATE: February 28 (Mon.) 11:00 − 12:00
PLACE: Kenkyu Honkan 1F, Meeting Room 3



    ABSTRACT

We will review recent developments on geometrical aspects of Yang-Mills matrix models, notably the IKKT model. The relation between noncommutative gauge theory, UV/IR mixing and induced gravity on generic noncommutative branes will be explained. The role of generalized effective matrix models will be discussed.
