A manifestly Lorentz-covariant calculus based on two matrix-coordinates and their associated derivatives is introduced. It allows formulating relativistic field theories in any even-dimensional spacetime. The construction extends a…
In this paper we study ternary algebras of third-order hypermatrices. By hypermatrix we mean a complex-valued variable with three indices, which is also called a three-dimensional matrix or spatial matrix. We assume that a hypermatrix is…
We develop the theory of Wigner representations for general probabilistic theories (GPTs), a large class of operational theories that include both classical and quantum theory. The Wigner representations that we introduce are a natural way…
We obtain Nekrasov-type expressions for the Seiberg-Witten prepotential for the six-dimensional (1,0) supersymmetric E-string theory compactified on T^2 with nontrivial Wilson lines. We consider compactification with four general Wilson…
The paper contains a systematic theory of the one-dimensional Double Hecke algebra, including applications to the difference Fourier transform, Macdonald's polynomials, Gaussian sums at roots of unity, and Verlinde algebras. The main result…
This is a review of some beautiful matrix models related to the moduli space of Riemann surfaces as well as to noncritical c=1 string theory at self-dual radius. These include the Penner model and the W-infinity model, which have different…
It is shown that the world-line can be eliminated in the matrix quantum mechanics conjectured by Banks, Fischler, Shenker and Susskind to describe the light-cone physics of M theory. The resulting matrix model has a form that suggests…
The same complex matrix model calculates both tachyon scattering for the c=1 non-critical string at the self-dual radius and certain correlation functions of half-BPS operators in N=4 super-Yang-Mills. It is dual to another complex matrix…
We show that the discrete complex, and numerous hypercomplex, Fourier transforms defined and used so far by a number of researchers can be unified into a single framework based on a matrix exponential version of Euler's formula…
In this paper we explore a class of equivalence relations over $\N^\ast$ from which is constructed a sequence of symetric matrices related to the Mertens function. From numerical experimentations we suggest a conjecture, about the growth of…
We define E-theory for separable C*-algebras over second countable topological spaces and establish its basic properties. This includes an approximation theorem that relates the E-theory over a general space to the E-theories over finite…
Let group generators having finite-dimensional representation be realized as Hermitian linear differential operators without nhomogeneous terms as takes place, for example, for the SO(n) group. Then orresponding group Hamiltonians…
Small M-theories unify various models of a given family in the same way as the M-theory unifies a variety of superstring models. We consider this idea in application to the family of eigenvalue matrix models: their M-theory unifies various…
We derive a concrete closed string dual to any interacting Hermitian one-matrix model, away from the double-scaling limit. Matrix and string correlators manifestly agree, to all orders in the genus expansion and all orders in the 't Hooft…
An introduction to Seiberg-Witten theory and its relation to theories which include gravity.
It is known that the Hilbert space dimensionality for quasiparticles in an SU(2)_k Chern-Simons-Witten theory is given by the number of directed paths in certain Bratteli diagrams. We present an explicit formula for these numbers for…
The subject of Chapter 1 is GKK $\tau$-matrices and related topics. Chapter 2 is devoted to boundedly invertible collections of matrices, with applications to operator norms and spline approximation. Various structured matrices (Toeplitz,…
Differential reformulations of field theories are often used for explicit computations. We derive a one-matrix differential formulation of two-matrix models, with the help of which it is possible to diagonalize the one- and two-matrix…
In this talk I describe some applications of random matrix models to the study of N=1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories with matter fields in the fundamental representation. I review the derivation of the…
We use Seiberg--Witten-like relations in the topological recursion framework to obtain virtual Euler characteristics for uni- and multicellular maps for ensembles of classic orthogonal polynomials and for ensembles related to nonorientable…
