We propose a construction of five-branes which fill both light-cone dimensions in Banks, Fischler, Shenker and Susskind's matrix model of M theory. We argue that they have the correct long-range fields and spectrum of excitations. We prove Dirac charge quantization with the membrane by showing that the five-brane induces a Berry phase in the membrane world-volume theory, with a familiar magnetic monopole form.

  1. A Novel Matrix Model for the M5-brane?

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

    A maximally supersymmetric formal extension of BFSS by a 5-bracket exists once the 2-bracket structure constants are promoted to a dynamical self-dual field subject to Filippov and BPS quadratic constraints.

  2. Twisting BFSS & IKKT

    hep-th 2026-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The minimal supersymmetric twists of the IKKT and BFSS matrix models are computed in BV-BRST cohomology and matched, in the planar limit, to BCOV-type twisted IIB and IIA supergravity; the non-minimal twists are local...
