title: An Infinite Number of Static Soliton Solutions to the 5D Einstein-Maxwell Equations with a Dilaton Field
abstract: We study the 5D static Einstein-Maxwell equations with a dilaton field. We develop an infinite number of solutions using a soliton technique. We study the rod structure of a two-soliton solution and show that a 5D dilatonic black ring and black hole solutions are included.

title: The Renormalized Energy-Momentum Tensor In a Robertson -Walker Universe
abstract: An expectation value of the energy·momentum tensor for a massive scalar field propagating in a Robertson-\\;'alker universe is calculated by taking account of both effects caused by the particle creation and the vacuum polarization. A special case of the Chitre-Hartle universe which enables us to perform an explicit calculation is also treated.

title: Axially symmetric solution of the Einstein equation with solitons in extra dimensions
abstract: We give the solution to the higher dimensional Einstein equation with axial symmetry by using the inverse scattering method. The solution consists of two solitons in the external dimensions and any number of solitons in the internal dimensions.

title: De Sitter metric as a self-consistent solution of the back reaction problem
abstract: The de Sitter metric is a solution of the Einstein equation even when quantum effects of matter fields are included. However between the curvature and the cosmological constant Λ changes drastically. For some values of Λ, there are two or three solutions, while there is none in some other cases. There can be even a positive curvature solution for negative Λ. These features depend on mass and spin of matter fields and the matter-curvature coupling.

title: A Metric Representation of Belavin's Yang-Mills Pseudoparticle Solution and Its Relation to Some Isotropic Universe
abstract: In order to investigate a physical connection between the quantum tunneling processes (vacuum-to vacuum transition or thermal radiation) of Yang-Mills 11 •*' and gravitational" pseudoparticles, T omimatsu"'<l compared several (especially, topological) properties of the Belavin and Schwarzschild solutions with each other in terms of their Euclidean metrics. For that purpose, he transformed the Belavin solution into a metric form on the basis of Carmeli's'l formalism which describes the general theory of relativity in the form of an SL (2, C) gauge field. He showed that, of the two important topological quantities P (the Pontryagin number) and X (the Euler characteristic), P= 0 and ;: '-2 for the rewritten Belavin solution, similar to the result that P= 0 and !: ~, 2 for the Schwarzschild solution. To assure the idea that the origin of radiation with a thermal nature from both pseudoparticles is due to the fact that their x's are non-vanishing, he"b' performed a path-integral approach to the quantization of a massive scalar field in the gravitational field corresponding to Belavin' s solution. The resulting energy spectrum was an incomplete thermal one because of its non -uniform temper a ture and non -zero

title: Curved-space classical solutions of a massive supermatrix model
abstract: We investigate here a supermatrix model with a mass term and a cubic interaction. It is based on the super Lie algebra osp(1|32,R), which could play a role in the construction of the eleven-dimensional M-theory. This model contains a massive version of the IIB matrix model, where some fields have a tachyonic mass term. Therefore, the trivial vacuum of this theory is unstable. However, this model possesses several classical solutions where these fields build noncommutative curved spaces and these solutions are shown to be energetically more favorable than the trivial vacuum. In particular, we describe in details two cases, the SO(3)×SO(3)×SO(3) (three fuzzy 2-spheres) and the SO(9) (fuzzy 8-sphere) classical backgrounds.

title: Monte Carlo studies of the spontaneous rotational symmetry breaking in dimensionally reduced super Yang-Mills models
abstract: A bstractIt has long been speculated that the spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB) of SO(D) occurs in matrix models obtained by dimensionally reducing super Yang-Mills theory in D = 6, 10 dimensions. In particular, the D = 10 case corresponds to the IIB matrix model, which was proposed as a nonperturbative formulation of superstring theory, and the SSB may correspond to the dynamical generation of four-dimensional space-time. Recently, it has been shown by using the Gaussian expansion method that the SSB indeed occurs for D = 6 and D = 10, and interesting nature of the SSB common to both cases has been suggested. Here we study the same issue from first principles by a Monte Carlo method in the D = 6 case. In spite of a severe complex-action problem, the factorization method enables us to obtain various quantities associated with the SSB, which turn out to be consistent with the previous results obtained by the Gaussian expansion method. This also demonstrates the usefulness of the factorization method as a general approach to systems with the complex-action problem or the sign problem.

title: Investigation of Matrix Theory via Super Lie Algebra
abstract: This paper reports the investigation of a matrix model via super Lie algebra, following the proposal of L. Smolin. We consider the osp(1|32,R) nongauged matrix model and gl(1|32,R) gauged matrix model, especially paying attention to the supersymmetry and the relationship with IKKT model. This paper is based on the collaboration with the collaboration with S.Iso, H.Kawai and Y.Ohwashi.

title: A practical solution to the sign problem in a matrix model for dynamical compactification
abstract: The matrix model formulation of superstring theory offers the possibility to understand the appearance of 4d space-time from 10d as a consequence of spontaneous breaking of the SO(10) symmetry. Monte Carlo studies of this issue is technically difficult due to the so-called sign problem. We present a practical solution to this problem generalizing the factorization method proposed originally by two of the authors (K.N.A. and J.N.). Explicit Monte Carlo calculations and large-N extrapolations are performed in a simpler matrix model with similar properties, and reproduce quantitative results obtained previously by the Gaussian expansion method. Our results also confirm that the spontaneous symmetry breaking indeed occurs due to the phase of the fermion determinant, which vanishes for collapsed configurations. We clarify various generic features of this approach, which would be useful in applying it to other statistical systems with the sign problem.

title: Perturbative versus nonperturbative dynamics of the fuzzy S2 × S2
abstract: We study a matrix model with a cubic term, which incorporates both the fuzzy S2 × S2 and the fuzzy S2 as classical solutions. Both of the solutions decay into the vacuum of the pure Yang-Mills model (even in the large-N limit) when the coefficient of the cubic term is smaller than a critical value, but the large-N behavior of the critical point is different for the two solutions. The results above the critical point are nicely reproduced by the all order calculations in perturbation theory. By comparing the free energy, we find that the true vacuum is given either by the fuzzy S2 or by the ``pure Yang-Mills vacuum'' depending on the coupling constant. In Monte Carlo simulation we do observe a decay of the fuzzy S2 × S2 into the fuzzy S2 at moderate N, but the decay probability seems to be suppressed at large N. The above results, together with our previous results for the fuzzy CP2, reveal certain universality in the large-N dynamics of four-dimensional fuzzy manifolds realized in a matrix model with a cubic term.
