Electric-Magnetic Duality in IIB Matrix Model with D-brane
  We consider electric-magnetic duality(S-duality) in IIB matrix model with a D3-brane background. We propose the duality transformation by considering that of noncommutative Yang-Mills theory(NCYM) in four dimension. NCYM derived from the matrix model has a Yang-Mills coupling related to the noncommutativity of the spacetime. We argue that open strings bits as bi-local fields on the spacetime are decoupled from the bulk in NCOS decoupling limits as it is in string theory approach. We also discuss how our four dimensional spacetime relates to higher, by applying the decoupling and the commutative limits of the backgrounds of the matrix model.
