We develop an approximation scheme for the quantum mechanics of N D0-branes at finite temperature in the 't Hooft large-N limit. The entropy of the quantum mechanics calculated using this approximation agrees well 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. Our approximation scheme provides a model for the density matrix which describes a black hole in the strongly-coupled quantum mechanics.

  1. A Double--Scaling Large--\(d\) Saddle of BFSS/BMN Matrix Quantum Mechanics

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    A double-scaling large-d saddle for mass-deformed BFSS/BMN matrix QM interpolates between commutator-dominated and mass-dominated regimes, yielding BFSS_{2}-like low-T uniform-holonomy dynamics and IKKT-like high-T al...

  2. Regularized Master-Field Approximation for Large-$N$ Reduced Matrix Models

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    A finite-dimensional regularization of the master field enables direct numerical computation of large-N matrix models in both Euclidean and Minkowski signatures while reproducing known solutions in simple test cases.

  3. Molien--Weyl Singlet Counting and BFSS$_2$--Factorization in Gaussian Matrix QM

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    The very-low-temperature bosonic singlet spectrum in BFSS_{d+1} is controlled by d(d+1)/2 quadratic Gram operators Tr(X_a X_b), with an exact BFSS_3 = (BFSS_2)^3 factorization at (d,N)=(2,2).

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.5

    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.

  5. Endpoint formulation and Molien--Weyl structure for the \(N=2\), large--\(d\) BFSS/BMN models

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    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.

  6. Regularized Master-Field Approximation for Large-$N$ Reduced Matrix Models

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    A regularized finite-dimensional master field numerically solves large-N reduced matrix models, reproducing exact Euclidean solutions and perturbative Minkowski results for one- and two-matrix cases.
