Heat kernel expansion and induced action for the matrix model Dirac operator

Daniel N. Blaschke, Harold Steinacker, Michael Wohlgenannt

We compute the quantum effective action induced by integrating out fermions in Yang-Mills matrix models on a 4-dimensional background, expanded in powers of a gauge-invariant UV cu…

Curvature and Gravity Actions for Matrix Models II: the case of general Poisson structure

Daniel N. Blaschke, Harold Steinacker

We study the geometrical meaning of higher-order terms in matrix models of Yang-Mills type in the semi-classical limit, generalizing recent results arXiv:1003.4132 to the case of 4…

Schwarzschild Geometry Emerging from Matrix Models

Daniel N. Blaschke, Harold Steinacker

We demonstrate how various geometries can emerge from Yang-Mills type matrix models with branes, and consider the examples of Schwarzschild and Reissner-Nordstroem geometry. We pro…

Emergent Geometry and Gravity from Matrix Models: an Introduction

Harold Steinacker

A introductory review to emergent noncommutative gravity within Yang-Mills Matrix models is presented. Space-time is described as a noncommutative brane solution of the matrix mode…

Curvature and Gravity Actions for Matrix Models

Daniel N. Blaschke, Harold Steinacker

We show how gravitational actions, in particular the Einstein-Hilbert action, can be obtained from additional terms in Yang-Mills matrix models. This is consistent with recent resu…

Gauge Symmetry Breaking in Matrix Models

Harald Grosse, Fedele Lizzi, Harold Steinacker

We argue that some features of the standard model, in particular the fermion assignment and symmetry breaking, can be obtained in matrix model which describes noncommutative gauge…
