Wilson coefficients from a non-renormalization theorem in 2D SYM
hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

Non-renormalization in UV 2D SYM fixes the Wilson coefficient of the DVV operator in the IR orbifold CFT, consistent with matrix string theory.
A Matrix Theory Construction of the IIA/IIB Wall
hep-th 2026-03 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

A lightlike IIA/IIB domain wall is constructed at zero string coupling by gauging (−1)^{F_L} in matrix string theory, turning BPS IIA D0-branes into non-BPS IIB D0-branes.
