Little type IIB matrix model

Year: 2006
Type: article
Abstract: We study the zero-dimensional reduced model of $D=6$ pure super Yang-Mills theory and argue that the large $N$ limit describes the (2,0) Little String Theory. The one-loop effective action shows that the force exerted between two diagonal blocks of matrices behaves as $1/{r}^{4}$, implying a six-dimensional spacetime. We also observe that it is due to nongravitational interactions. We construct wave functions and vertex operators which realize the $D=6$, (2,0) tensor representation. We also comment on other little analogues of the IIB matrix model and Matrix Theory with less supercharges.
