$U(N)$ gauged quantum mechanics
I'm studying the $U(N)$ gauge theory theory in 0+1 dimensions. The aim is to show that this is equivalent to a matrix model. Is there any literature on this topic?
The action I am interested in is

Matrix geometry for F-strings
A stack of N D-branes has the strange property that the traverse D-brane coordinates are matrix-valued. When the matrices commute, they can be interpreted as ordinary coordinates for N ...

Schwarzschild radius in matrix models
The Schwarzschild radius for 11D BHs is given by $l_{11}(l_{11}m)^{1/8}$, which is the special case ($D=11$) of the general dimensional case of $(G_Dm)^{\frac{1}{D-3}}$. Here $m$ is the BH mass and ...

M-theory on a Planck scale torus
We know that 11D M-theory is described by BFSS matrix model and for M-theory on a torus $T^p$ (at least for small $p$s) the description is given by SYM theory in $p+1$ dimensions by using the ...
