We study the asymptotic behaviour of orthogonal polynomials in the complex plane that are associated to a certain normal matrix model. The model depends on a parameter and the asymptotic distribution of the eigenvalues undergoes a…
The matrix Whittaker kernel has been introduced by A. Borodin in Part IV of the present series of papers. This kernel describes a point process -- a probability measure on a space of countable point configurations. The kernel is expressed…
The tacnode Riemann-Hilbert problem is a 4 x 4 matrix valued RH problem that appears in the description of the local behavior of two touching groups of non-intersecting Brownian motions. The same RH problem was also found by Duits and…
A path-integral representation for the kernel of the evolution operator of general Hamiltonian systems is reviewed. We study the models with bosonic and fermionic degrees of freedom. A general scheme for introducing boundary conditions in…
We find and study a two-parameter family of coupled Painlev\'e II systems in dimension four with affine Weyl group symmetry of several types. Moreover, we find a three-parameter family of polynomial Hamiltonian systems in two variables…
In this paper we consider plane quartics with to involutions. We compute the Dixmier invariants, the bitangents and the Matrix representation problem of these curves, showing that they have symbolic solutions for the last two questions.
Recently developed methods for PT-symmetric models can be applied to quantum-mechanical matrix and vector models. In matrix models, the calculation of all singlet wave functions can be reduced to the solution a one-dimensional PT-symmetric…
We study Hermitian random matrix models with an external source matrix which has equispaced eigenvalues, and with an external field such that the limiting mean density of eigenvalues is supported on a single interval as the dimension tends…
We study the behaviors of the relative Bergman kernel metrics on holomorphic families of degenerating hyperelliptic Riemann surfaces and their Jacobian varieties. Near a node or cusp, we obtain precise asymptotic formulas with explicit…

The Painleve-IV equation has two families of rational solutions generated respectively by the generalized Hermite polynomials and the generalized Okamoto polynomials. We apply the isomonodromy method to represent all of these rational…
We continue to study the matrix model of the $N_f =2$ $SU(2)$ case that represents the irregular conformal block. What provides us with the Painlev\'{e} system is not the instanton partition function per se but rather a finite analog of its…
We study Heisenberg's matrix mechanics within an algebraic pre-Hilbert framework of arbitrary finite dimension. The commutator of the position and momentum matrices naturally generates a third Hermitian operator whose unbounded character…
Solutions of the discrete Painlev\'e II hierarchy are shown to be in relation with a family of Toeplitz determinants describing certain quantities in multicritical random partitions models, for which the limiting behavior has been recently…
It is well established that the spectral analysis of canonically quantized four-dimensional Seiberg-Witten curves can be systematically studied via the Nekrasov-Shatashvili functions. In this paper, we explore another aspect of the relation…
We construct 2x2-matrix linear problems with a spectral parameter for the Painleve equations I-V by means of the degeneration processes from the elliptic linear problem for the Painleve VI equation. These processes supplement the known…
One object of interest in random matrix theory is a family of point ensembles (random point configurations) related to various systems of classical orthogonal polynomials. The paper deals with a one--parametric deformation of these…
The geometric approach for Painlev\'e and quasi-Painlev\'e differential equations in the complex plane is applied to non-autonomous Hamiltonian systems, quartic in the dependent variables. By computing their defining manifolds (analogue of…
We study polynomials that are orthogonal with respect to a varying quartic weight \exp(-N(x^2/2+tx^4/4)) for t<0, where the orthogonality takes place on certain contours in the complex plane. Inspired by developments in 2D quantum gravity,…
Using the Painlev\'e--Kovalevskaya test, we find several new matrix generalizations of the Painlev\'e-4 equation. Some limiting transitions reduce them to known matrix Painlev\'e-2 equations.
