Seiberg-Witten Solution from Matrix Theory

Abstract

As another evidence for the matrix Discrete Light Cone formulation of M theory, we show how general integrable Hamiltonian systems emerge from BPS bound states of k longitudinal fivebranes. Such configurations preserve eight supercharges and by chain of dualities can be related to the solution of N=2 four-dimensional gauge theories. Underlying Hitchin systems on the bare spectral curve with k singular points arise from the Matrix theory compactification on the dual curve.
