Abstract

The partition function of the Chern-Simons theory on the three-sphere with the unitary group U(N)U(N) provides a one-matrix model. The corresponding NN-particle system can be mapped to the determinantal point process whose correlation kernel is expressed by using the Stieltjes-Wigert orthogonal polynomials. The matrix model and the point process are regarded as qq-extensions of the random matrix model in the Gaussian unitary ensemble and its eigenvalue point process, respectively. We prove the convergence of the NN-particle system to an infinite-dimensional determinantal point process in NN \to \infty, in which the correlation kernel is expressed by Jacobi's theta functions. We show that the matrix model obtained by this limit realizes the oscillatory matrix model in Chern-Simons theory discussed by de Haro and Tierz.
