Morita equivalence and duality Original Research Article

It was shown by Connes, Douglas, Schwarz [hep-th/9711162] that one can compactify M(atrix) theory on a non-commutative torus To. We prove that compactifications on Morita equivalent tori are in some sense physically equivalent. This statement can be considered as a generalization of non-classical SL(2,Z)N duality conjectured by Connes, Douglas and Schwarz for compactifications on two-dimensional non-commutative tori.
