Abstract:
We show that the string bit model suffers from doubling in the fermionic sector. The doubling leads to strong violation of supersymmetry in the limit NN\to\infty. Since there is an exact correspondence between string bits and the algebra of BMN operators even at finite NN, doubling is expected also on the side of super-Yang--Mills theory. We discuss the origin of the doubling in the BMN sector.
