Holography for the IKKT matrix model
22. October @ 1:30 pm – 3:00 pm UTC+2
Wednesday October 22, at 13:30, at room 1.221 (CSMB building) Zum Großen Windkanal 2, 12489 Berlin.
Prof. Henning Samtleben, (Ecole Normale Supérieure de Lyon, France) will give a talk on “Holography for the IKKT matrix model”; see abstract below.
Abstract:
A particularly interesting corner of the holographic dualities is the correspondence between the backgrounds of Dp-branes and their non-conformal field theory duals. Extrapolating this correspondence to the extremal case of p=-1, suggests a holographic duality for the IKKT matrix model. The dual D-instanton background is a half-supersymmetric BPS solution of Euclidean IIB supergravity. We construct a maximally supersymmetric one-dimensional supergravity theory around this background and match its fields to the lowest BPS multiplet of gauge invariant operators of the IKKT model.
