Towards Covariant Matrix Theory
Abstract
Description
We review an approach towards a covariant formulation of Matrix theory based on a discretization of the 11d membrane. Higher dimensional algebraic structures, such as the quantum triple Nambu bracket, naturally appear in this approach. We also discuss a novel geometric understanding of the space-time uncertainty relation which points towards a more geometric formulation of Matrix theory.
