Strings from Matrices

TL;DR

This paper demonstrates how Type IIA and IIB string theories can be derived as excitations within the matrix model of M theory, providing a unifying framework for understanding these fundamental strings.

Contribution

It introduces a novel approach to derive Type IIA and IIB strings directly from the matrix model of M theory, linking string theories to matrix dynamics.

Findings

Type IIA and IIB strings identified as matrix model excitations

Provides a unified matrix-based framework for string theories

Advances understanding of M theory and string dualities

Abstract

We identify Type IIA and IIB strings, as excitations in the matrix model of M theory.
