Abstract: We study D0-branes in type IIA on T2 with a background B-field turned on. We calculate explicitly how the background B-field modifies the D0-brane action. The effect of the B-field is to replace ordinary multiplication with a noncommutative product. This enables us to find the matrix model for M-theory on T2 with a background 3-form potential along the torus and the lightlike circle. This matrix model is exactly the non-local 2+1 dim SYM theory on a dual T2 proposed by Connes, Douglas and Schwarz. We calculate the radii and the gauge coupling for the SYM on the dual T2 for all choices of longitudinal momentum and membrane wrapping number on the T2.
