Chiral Fermions and the Standard Model from the Matrix Model
Compactified on a Torus    [PDF]

Hajime Aoki

It is shown that the IIB matrix model compactified on a six-dimensional torus with a nontrivial topology can provide chiral fermions and matter content close to the standard model on our four-dimensional spacetime. In particular, generation number three is given by the Dirac index on the torus.
