Supertubes in Matrix model and DBI action

Abstract
We show the equivalence between the supertube solutions with an arbitrary cross section in two different actions, the DBI action for the D2-brane and the matrix model action for the D0-branes. More precisely, the equivalence between the supertubes in the D2-brane picture and the D0-brane picture is shown in the boundary state formalism which is valid for all order in α'. This is an application of the method using the infinitely many D0-branes and anti-D0-branes which was used to show other equivalence relations between two seemingly different D-brane systems, including the D-brane realization of the ADHM construction of instanton. We also apply this method to the superfunnel type solutions successfully.
