Abstract

We study a Hermitian matrix model with a kinetic term given by Tr(HΦ2) Tr (H \Phi^2 ), where HH is a positive definite Hermitian matrix, similar as in the Kontsevich Matrix model, but with its potential Φ3\Phi^3 replaced by Φ4\Phi^4. We show that its partition function solves an integrable Schr\"odinger-type equation for a non-interacting NN-body Harmonic oscillator system.
