Noncommutative geometry from strings and branes

Abstract: Noncommutative torus compactification of Matrix model is shown to be a direct consequence of quantization of the open strings attached to a D-membrane with a nonvanishing background B field. We calculate the BPS spectrum of such a brane system using both string theory results and DBI action. The DBI action leads to a new transformation property of the compactification radii under the SL(2, Z) N transformations.

“…There m is interpreted as the winding number of the resulting D-string. The same interpretation is also made in [4,13,14,18,20] and seems natural for the following reason, for example. Setting θ = B 12 = 0 in (4.17) yields 2πkn = (2π s ) 2 m, (4.19) which is consistent with the physical picture that each D-instanton has 'cell' of area 2πk because of the world volume noncommutativity (4.1) and the D-string wrapped m times over T 2 consists of n such cells.…”

“…It was suggested [8,9,10,11] that the noncommutative geometry can be reproduced in the elementary framework of constrained systems as a result of the Hamiltonian quantization of the system (2), (3), by analogy with the noncommutativity arising for coordinates of a charged particle in the lowest Landau level [13,14,15]. To achieve this, there were proposed rather radical modifications [8,11] of the Dirac procedure for constrained systems. There is some discrepancy among the results obtained in different approaches, which was discussed in [8,9,10,11,12,16,17].…”
