Abstract

We review the passage from the supermembrane to matrix theory via a consistent truncation following a non-commutative deformation in light-cone gauge. Some indications are given that there should exist a generalisation of non-commutativity involving a three-index theta on the membrane, and we discuss some possible ways of investigating the corresponding algebraic structure.
