We study double integral representations of Christoffel-Darboux kernels associated with two examples of Hermite-type matrix orthogonal polynomials. We show that the Fredholm determinants connected with these kernels are related through the…
We characterize Fredholm determinants of a class of Hankel composition operators via matrix-valued Riemann-Hilbert problems, for additive and multiplicative compositions. The scalar-valued kernels of the underlying integral operators are…

String equations related to 2D gravity seem to provide, quite naturally and systematically, integrable kernels, in the sense of Its-Izergin-Korepin and Slavnov. Some of these kernels (besides the "classical" examples of Airy and Pearcey)…
We prove that matrix Fredholm determinants related to multi-time processes can be expressed in terms of determinants of integrable kernels \`a la Its-Izergin-Korepin-Slavnov (IIKS) and hence related to suitable Riemann-Hilbert problems,…
We study Fredholm determinants related to a family of kernels which describe the edge eigenvalue behavior in unitary random matrix models with critical edge points. The kernels are natural higher order analogues of the Airy kernel and are…
We study the one-parameter family of Fredholm determinants $\det(I-\rho^2\mathcal{K}_{n,x})$, $\rho\in\mathbb{R}$, where $\mathcal{K}_{n,x}$ stands for the integral operator acting on $L^2(x,+\infty)$ with the higher order Airy kernel. This…
We study the determinant $\det(I-K_{\textnormal{PII}})$ of an integrable Fredholm operator $K_{\textnormal{PII}}$ acting on the interval $(-s,s)$ whose kernel is constructed out of the $\Psi$-function associated with the Hastings-McLeod…
The purpose of this article is to develop a theory behind the occurrence of "path-integral" kernels in the study of extended determinantal point processes and non-intersecting line ensembles. Our first result shows how determinants…
We study Fredholm determinants of the Painlev\'e II and Painlev\'e XXXIV kernels. In certain critical unitary random matrix ensembles, these determinants describe special gap probabilities of eigenvalues. We obtain Tracy-Widom formulas for…
In a 1977 paper of McCoy, Tracy and Wu there appeared for the first time the solution of a Painlev\'e equation in terms of Fredholm determinants of integral operators. This equation is $\psi''(t)+t^{-1}\psi'(t)=(1/2) \sinh 2\psi+2\alpha…
Orthogonal polynomial random matrix models of NxN hermitian matrices lead to Fredholm determinants of integral operators with kernel of the form (phi(x) psi(y) - psi(x) phi(y))/x-y. This paper is concerned with the Fredholm determinants of…
Let $(-A,B,C)$ be a linear system in continuous time $t>0$ with input and output space ${\mathbb C}$ and state space $H$. The scattering (or impulse response) functions $\phi_{(x)}(t)=Ce^{-(t+2x)A}B$ determines a Hankel integral operator…
As Fredholm determinants are more and more frequent in the context of stochastic integrability, we unveil the existence of a common framework in many integrable systems where they appear. This consists in a quasi-universal hierarchy of…
We formulate the generic $\tau$-function of the Painlev\'e II equation as a Fredholm determinant of an integrable (Its-Izergin-Korepin-Slavnov) operator. The $\tau$-function depends on the isomonodromic time $t$ and two Stokes' parameters,…
We study a family of Fredholm determinants associated to deformations of the sine kernel, parametrized by a weight function w. For a specific choice of w, this kernel describes bulk statistics of finite temperature free fermions. We…
We compute asymptotics for Hankel determinants and orthogonal polynomials with respect to a discontinuous Gaussian weight, in a critical regime where the discontinuity is close to the edge of the associated equilibrium measure support.…
