Description

The D0-matrix models of string theory have gained much attention in the latter years. I will discuss the physics one can extract from these using lattice-based simulations and the gauge/gravity duality to understand gravitational theories. In particular, I will show how the confinement-to-deconfinement transition corresponds to a topology change of the geometry in the supergravity theory and how at low temperatures conforms to the study of the M-theory region.
