Quantum Kaluza-Klein theory with M 2(ℂ)
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 Following steps analogous to classical Kaluza-Klein theory, we solve for the quantum Riemannian geometry on C ∞ (M) ⊗ M 2(ℂ) in terms of classical Riemannian geometry on a smooth manifold M , a finite quantum geometry on the algebra M 2(ℂ) of 2 × 2 ...

International Journal of Modern Physics A, 2007 We review our recent proposal for a background-independent formulation of a holographic theory of quantum gravity. The present paper incorporates the necessary background material on geometry of canonical quantum theory, holography and space–time thermodynamics, Matrix theory, as well as our specific proposal for a dynamical theory of geometric quantum

Journal of Mathematical Physics, 2001 We conjecture that there exists a strong coupling limit of bosonic string theory which is related to the 26 dimensional theory in the same way that 11 dimensional M theory is related to superstring theory. More precisely, we believe that bosonic string theory is the compactification on a line interval of a 27 dimensional theory whose low-energy limit ...

Orbifolds of M-Theory and String Theory [PDF]
Mod.Phys.Lett.A11:1339-1348,1996, 1996 It is shown that many of the conjectured dualities involving orbifold compactification of M-theory follow from the known dualities involving M-theory and string theory in ten dimensions, and the ansatz that orbifolding procedure commutes with the duality transformation.

In the woods of M-theory [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2001 We study BPS states which arise in compactifications of M-theory on Calabi-Yau manifolds. In particular, we are interested in the spectrum of the particles obtained by wrapping M2-brane on a two-cycle in the CY manifold X. We compute the Euler characteristics of the moduli space of genus zero curves which land in a holomorphic four-cycle $S \subset X$.

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2001 After reviewing how M‐theory subsumes string theory, we report on some new and interesting developments, focusing on the “brane‐world”.

N = 1 Field Theory Duality from M-theory [PDF]
Phys.Rev.D57:6455-6463,1998, 1997 We investigate Seiberg's N=1 field theory duality for four-dimensional supersymmetric QCD with the M-theory 5-brane. We find that the M-theory configuration for the magnetic dual theory arises via a smooth deformation of the M-theory configuration for the electric theory.

Probing M-theory with tetrahedron instantons
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 The duality between type IIA superstring theory and M-theory enables us to lift bound states of D0-branes and n parallel D6-branes to M-theory compactified on an n-centered multi-Taub-NUT space TN $$ \mathbbm{TN} $$ n .

Stringy corrections to a time-dependent background solution of string and M-Theory [PDF]
Phys.Rev.D75:126004,2007, 2007 We consider one of the simplest time-dependent backgrounds in M-theory, describing the shrinking away of the M-theory dimension with the other spatial dimensions static. As the M-theory dimension becomes small, the situation becomes well-described by string theory in a singular cosmological background where the string coupling tends to zero but the ...
