Unitary matrix model for toroidal compactifications of M theory [PDF]

, 1997
A unitary matrix model is proposed as the large-N matrix formulation of M theory on flat space with toroidal topology. The model reproduces the motion of elementary D-particles on the compact space, and admits membrane states with nonzero wrapping around

General static spherically symmetric solutions in Horava gravity

, 2009
We derive general static spherically symmetric solutions in the Horava theory of gravity with nonzero shift field. These represent "hedgehog" versions of black holes with radial "hair" arising from the shift field.
