Abstract: Recent studies on the Lorentzian version of the type IIB matrix model show that (3+1)D expanding universe emerges dynamically from (9+1)D space-time predicted by superstring theory. Here we study a bosonic matrix model obtained by omitting the fermionic matrices. With the adopted simplification and the usage of a large-scale parallel computer, we are able to perform Monte Carlo calculations with matrix size up to N=512, which is twenty times larger than that used previously for the studies of the original model. When the matrix size is larger than some critical value Nmcsimeq110, we find that (3+1)D expanding universe emerges dynamically with a clear large-N scaling property. Furthermore, at sufficiently late times, we observe a power-law behavior t1/2 of the spatial extent with respect to time t, which is reminiscent of the expanding behavior of the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe in the radiation dominated era. We discuss possible implications of this result on the original model including fermionic matrices.
