Description

The geometry of the brane solutions in matrix models is discussed in more detail. In particular, the relation between the metric and the symplectic structure is elaborated. The equations of motion for the geometry is discussed, aiming at an understanding of the effective brane gravity. Possible mechanisms for the brane gravity are discussed.
