Via compactification on a circle, the matrix model of M-theory proposed by Banks et al suggests a concrete identification between the large N limit of two-dimensional N=8 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory and type IIA string theory. In this paper we collect evidence that supports this identification. We explicitly identify the perturbative string states and their interactions, and describe the appearance of D-particle and D-membrane states.

  1. Regularized Master-Field Approximation for Large-$N$ Reduced Matrix Models

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.5 of 10

    A regularized finite-dimensional master field numerically solves large-N reduced matrix models, reproducing exact Euclidean solutions and perturbative Minkowski results for one- and two-matrix cases.

  2. Wilson coefficients from a non-renormalization theorem in 2D SYM

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Non-renormalization in UV 2D SYM fixes the Wilson coefficient of the DVV operator in the IR orbifold CFT, consistent with matrix string theory.

  3. A Matrix Theory Construction of the IIA/IIB Wall

    hep-th 2026-03 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A lightlike IIA/IIB domain wall is constructed at zero string coupling by gauging (−1)^{F_L} in matrix string theory, turning BPS IIA D0-branes into non-BPS IIB D0-branes.

    hep-th 2023-11 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Develops worldsheet sigma model for fundamental strings in critical type IIA limit showing nodal singularities and derives T-duality web unifying decoupling limits including ambitwistor and Carrollian strings.

  6. On the large N convergence of matrix models

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    In the semiclassical approximation the eigenvalues of the SU(N) matrix model Hamiltonian converge one-to-one to the eigenvalues of the continuum supermembrane Hamiltonian with central charge as N approaches infinity.

  7. Instabilities in scale-separated Casimir vacua

    hep-th 2025-07 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Casimir-stabilized AdS vacua with parametric scale separation in supergravity exhibit perturbative and non-perturbative instabilities under deformations.

  8. On the Underlying Nonrelativistic Nature of Relativistic Holography

    hep-th 2025-02 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Standard AdS/CFT duality is reinterpreted as D-brane/black-brane duality in nonrelativistic D3-brane theory, with AdS5×S5 as a relativistic bubble in flat 3-Newton-Cartan geometry.
