Abstract

Extending a recent result of Giddings, Hacquebord and Verlinde, we show that in the UŽN. SYM Matrix theory there exist classical BPS instantons which interpolate between different closed string configurations via joiningrsplitting interactions similar to those of string field theory. We construct them starting from branched coverings of Riemann surfaces. For the class of them which we analyze in detail the construction can be made explicit in terms UŽN. affine Toda field theories. q1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
