Matrix model cosmology in two space-time dimensions

Year: 2014
Type: article
Abstract: We examine solutions to the classical Ishibashi-Kawai-Kitazawa-Tsuchiya matrix model equations in three space-time dimensions. Closed, open and static two-dimensional universes naturally emerge from such models in the commutative limit. We show that tachyonic modes are a generic feature of these cosmological solutions.
