The partition function of the two-matrix model as an isomonodromic tau-function

Exactly Solvable and Integrable Systems 2009-11-13 v1

Abstract

We consider the Itzykson-Zuber-Eynard-Mehta two-matrix model and prove that the partition function is an isomonodromic tau function in a sense that generalizes Jimbo-Miwa-Ueno's. In order to achieve the generalization we need to define a notion of tau-function for isomonodromic systems where the ad-regularity of the leading coefficient is not a necessary requirement.
