Abstract
We use genus zero free energy functions of Hermitian matrix models to define spectral curves and their special deformations. They are special plane curves defined by formal power series with integral coefficients generalizing the Catalan numbers. This is done in two different versions, depending on two different genus expansions, and these two versions are in some sense dual to each other.
