Tom Banks, Nathan Seiberg, Stephen Shenker

TL;DR
This paper analyzes the supersymmetry algebra of the matrix model for M theory, identifying states with non-zero charges as various branes, and discusses their properties in the large N limit.
Contribution
It uncovers central charges in the supersymmetry algebra that activate only at large N, linking them to different brane states in the matrix model.
Findings
Central charges appear only in the large N limit.
States with non-zero charges correspond to various branes.
The analysis clarifies the role of branes in the matrix model.
Abstract
Various aspects of branes in the recently proposed matrix model for M theory are discussed. A careful analysis of the supersymmetry algebra of the matrix model uncovers some central charges which can be activated only in the large limit. We identify the states with non-zero charges as branes of different dimensions.
