Hermitian Matrix Model

Abstract We study ћ expansion of the KP hierarchy following Takasaki-Takebe [1] considering several examples of matrix model τ-functions with natural genus expansion. Among the examples there are solutions of KP equations of special interest, such as generating function for simple Hurwitz numbers, Hermitian matrix model, Kontsevich model and Brezin-Gross-Witten model. We show that all these models with parameter ћ are τ-functions of the ћ-KP hierarchy and the expansion in ћ for the ћ-KP coincides with the genus expansion for these models. Furthermore, we show a connection of recent papers considering the ћ-formulation of the KP hierarchy [2, 3] with original Takasaki-Takebe approach. We find that in this approach the recovery of enumerative geometric meaning of τ-functions is straightforward and algorithmic.

Abstract It is known that matrix models computing the partition functions of three-dimensional $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 4 superconformal Chern-Simons theories described by circular quiver diagrams can be written as the partition functions of ideal Fermi gases when all the nodes have equal ranks. We extend this approach to rank deformed theories. The resulting matrix models factorize into factors depending only on the relative ranks in addition to the Fermi gas factors. We find that this factorization plays a critical role in showing the equality of the partition functions of dual theories related by the Hanany-Witten transition. Furthermore, we show that the inverses of the density matrices of the ideal Fermi gases can be simplified and regarded as quantum curves as in the case without rank deformations. We also comment on four nodes theories using our results.

Continuum Field

The radius dependence of partition functions is explicitly evaluated in the continuum field theory of a compactified boson, interacting with two-dimensional quantum gravity (noncritical string) on Riemann surfaces for the first few genera. The partition function for the torus is found to be a sum of terms proportional to R and 1/R. This is in agreement with the result of a discretized version (matrix models), but is quite different from the critical string. The supersymmetric case is also explicitly evaluated.

The Continuum

The double scaling limit of a new class of the multi-matrix models proposed in Ref. 1, which possess the W-symmetry at the discrete level, is investigated in detail. These models are demonstrated to fall into the same universality class as the standard multi-matrix models. In particular, the transformation of the W-algebra at the discrete level into the continuum one of the papers2 is proposed and the corresponding partition functions compared. All calculations are demonstrated in full in the first nontrivial case of W(3)-constraints.

Double Scaling Limit

In the general framework of one-Hermitian-matrix models, we study critical behaviors such that δx~δRm/n~δSm; δx, δS and δR are, respectively, the bare cosmological constant and the orthogonal-polynomial coefficients around criticality. On the sphere, we prove the existence of consistent multicriticality conditions such that string equations exhibit the above behavior. We define a double scaling limit and write down exact equations for the specific heat for any (m, n) model. Their solutions are unambiguous and the only corrections come from genus-one topology. We compute exact correlation functions for well-defined scaling operators. These belong to two different sectors. One of them is such that any squared operator vanishes when inserted in any correlation function. We discuss briefly the flows between these multicritical points as well as the nature of the 2D field theories coupled to gravity which they can describe.

We propose random matrix models which have N=1/2 supersymmetry in zero dimension. The supersymmetry breaks down spontaneously. It is shown that the double scaling limit can be defined in these models and the breakdown of the supersymmetry remains in the continuum limit. The exact non-trivial partition functions of the string theories corresponding to these matrix models are also obtained.
