Abstract

We consider multiple sums and multi-integrals as tau functions of the BKP hierarchy using neutral fermions as the simplest tool for deriving these. The sums are over projective Schur functions QαQ_\alpha for strict partitions α\alpha. We consider two types of such sums: weighted sums of QαQ_\alpha over strict partitions α\alpha and sums over products QαQγQ_\alpha Q_\gamma. In this way we obtain discrete analogues of the beta-ensembles (β=1,2,4\beta=1,2,4). Continuous versions are represented as multiple integrals. Such sums and integrals are of interest in a number of problems in mathematics and physics.
