    The authors consider actions for \(N\) \(D\)-branes at points in a general Kähler manifold, which satisfy the axioms of \(D\)-geometry, and could be used as starting points for defining M(atrix)-theory in curved space. They show that the axioms cannot be satisfied unless the target space is Ricci-flat, and give strong evidence that there exists a solution when it is Ricci-flat.
