abstract
We present the details of a mean-field approximation scheme for the quantum mechanics of N D0-branes at finite temperature. The approximation can be applied at strong 't Hooft coupling. We find that the resulting entropy is in good agreement with the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of a ten-dimensional non-extremal black hole with 0-brane charge. This result is in accord with the duality conjectured by Itzhaki, Maldacena, Sonnenschein and Yankielowicz. We study the spectrum of single-string excitations within the quantum mechanics, and find evidence for a clear separation between light and heavy degrees of freedom. We also present a way of identifying the black hole horizon.

Gram/Wishart/Stiefel reformulation of N=2 large-d BFSS/BMN endpoints absorbs -A into a shifted mass and recovers the universal continuum -2d DΛ-channel after non-polynomial transverse completion.
Establishes equivalence between endpoint and Molien-Weyl formulations for large-d BFSS models on the lattice and derives finite continuum D-channel via a toy holonomy potential model.
