Chiral fermions and the standard model from the matrix model compactified on a torus
Description
It is shown that the IIB matrix model compactified on a six-dimensional torus with a nontrivial topology can provide chiral fermions and matter content close to the standard model on our four-dimensional spacetime. In particular, generation number three is given by the Dirac index on the torus. (author)
