In this note we derive some consequences from the Mari\~no-Vafa formula and the cut-and-join equation, these include unified simple proofs of the $\lambda_g$ conjecture and some other Hodge integral identities. We also describe a proof of…

We prove a remarkable formula for Hodge integrals conjectured by Marino and Vafa based on large N duality, using functorial virtual localization on certain moduli spaces of relative stable morphisms.
In this paper we derive some new Hodge integral identities by taking limits of the Marino-Vafa formula. These identities include the formula of lambda_{1}lambda_{g}-integral on M_{g,1}, the vanishing result of lambda_{g}ch_{2l}(E)-integral…
We prove the Gopakumar-Marino-Vafa formula for special cubic Hodge integrals. The GMV formula arises from Chern-Simons/string duality applied to the unknot in the three sphere. The GMV formula is a q-analog of the ELSV formula for linear…
By the same method introduced in [9], we calculate the Laplace transform of the celebrated cut-and-join equation of Mari\~no-Vafa formula discovered by C. Liu, K. Liu and J. Zhou [17]. Then, we study the applications of the polynomial…
In this paper, we present and prove a new truncated $\mathcal{V}$-fractional Taylor's formula using the truncated $\mathcal{V}$-fractional variation of constants formula. In this sense, we present the truncated $\mathcal{V}$-fractional…
Based on the duality between open-string theory on noncompact Calabi-Yau threefolds and Chern-Simons theory on three manifolds, M Marino and C Vafa conjectured a formula of one-partition Hodge integrals in term of invariants of the unknot…
We give a new proof of the cut-and-join equation for the monotone Hurwitz numbers, derived first by Goulden, Guay-Paquet, and Novak. Our proof in particular uses a combinatorial technique developed by Han. The main interest in this…
We present a proof of the full Mari\~no-Vafa Conjecture that identifies certain open string invariants of the resolved conifold with the Chern-Simons knot invariant of the unknot, i.e. the quantum dimensions.
The symmetric function theorem states that a polynomial that is invariant under permutation of variables, is a polynomial in the elementary symmetric polynomials. We deduce this classical result, in the analytic setting, from the…

Continuous symmetries of the Hirota difference equation, commuting with shifts of independent variables, are derived by means of the dressing procedure. Action of these symmetries on the dependent variables of the equation is presented.…
We establish a polynomial recursion formula for linear Hodge integrals. It is obtained as the Laplace transform of the cut-and-join equation for the simple Hurwitz numbers. We show that the recursion recovers the Witten-Kontsevich theorem…
We calculate the Laplace transform of the cut-and-join equation of Goulden, Jackson and Vakil. The result is a polynomial equation that has the topological structure identical to the Mirzakhani recursion formula for the Weil-Petersson…
We present a prescription to calculate the quadratic and logarithmic divergent parts of several integrals employing a cutoff in a coherent way, i.e. in total agreement with symmetry requirements. As examples we consider one-loop Ward…
We propose a variable metric forward-backward splitting algorithm and prove its convergence in real Hilbert spaces. We then use this framework to derive primal-dual splitting algorithms for solving various classes of monotone inclusions in…
We show that Pinney's equation [2] with a constant coefficient can be reduced to its linear part by a simple change of variables. Also, Pinney's original solution is simplified slightly.
In this article we use the expansion for biquantization described in Cattaneo-Felder [math.QA/0309180] for the case of symmetric spaces. We introduce a function of two variables $E(X,Y)$ for any symmetric pairs. This function has an…
The $q$-Toda equation is derived from replacing ordinary derivatives with $q$-derivatives in the famous Toda equation. In this paper, we associate an extension of the $q$-Toda equation with matrix eigenvalue problems, and then show…
