Recent Numerical Results on D0-Brane Matrix Model

Explore recent numerical results on the D0-brane matrix model in this 44-minute conference talk delivered at the Workshop on "Large-N Matrix Models and Emergent Geometry" held at the Erwin Schrödinger International Institute for Mathematics and Physics (ESI). Delve into the latest findings from numerical simulations of the D0-brane matrix model, which is conjectured to be a nonperturbative formulation of type IIA superstring theory and M-theory. Examine how the duality between the matrix model and type IIA superstring theory is confirmed with good precision, including stringy corrections. Discover a newly identified low-energy phase (confined phase) and its potential implications for describing M-theory. Explore the argument that the matrix model can explain the eleven-dimensional Schwarzschild black hole, providing valuable insights into the intersection of matrix models, string theory, and black hole physics.
