Abstract

We review some tests of the 0-brane and instanton matrix models based on comparing long-distance interaction potentials between branes and their bound states (with 1/2,1/4 or 1/8 of supersymmetry) in supergravity and in super Yang-Mills descriptions. We first consider the supergravity-SYM correspondence at the level of the leading term in the interaction potential, and then describe some recent results concerning the subleading term and their implications for the structure of the 2-loop F6 term in the SYM effective action.
