Matrix Models and Lorentz Invariance

The question of Lorentz invariance in the membrane matrix model is addresse

Higher-Dimensional Integrable Systems from Multilinear Evolution Equations

A multilinear M-dimensional generalization of Lax pairs is introduced and its explicit form is given for the recently discovered class of time-harmonic, integrable, hypersurface motions.Comment: 5 page

Relativistic minimal surfaces

We find classical solutions to the equations of motion of an M-dimensional surface moving in a higher-dimensional embedding space-time for arbitrary M. In the case of closed membranes, solutions exist for any topological type (genus)

Integrable three-body systems with distinct two-body forces

Translationally invariant one-dimensional three-body systems with mutually different pair potentials are derived that possess a third constant of motion, both classically and quantum-mechanically; a Lax pair is given, and all (even) regular solutions of the corresponding functional equation are obtained

A multiflare horn with 1-megawatt power handling capability

The design and testing of the prototype horn for the proposed 1-megawatt radar are described. The unique features of this square horn include a multiflare design in which flare angle changes rather than corrugations are used to generate the required higher-order modes. A five-port combining section is used at the input. The design of this section and the multiflare section are described. Measured radiation patterns are in good agreement with theoretical patterns

Some Classical Solutions of Membrane Matrix Model Equations

Some exact solutions to the classical matrix model equations that arise in the context of M(embrane) theory are given, and their topological nature is identified

Partial Hamiltonian reduction of relativistic extended objects in light-cone gauge

The elimination of the non-transversal field in the standard light-cone formulation of higher-dimensional extended objects is formulated as a Hamiltonian reduction.Comment: 11 page
