We study unitary invariant random matrix ensembles with singular potentials. We obtain asymptotics for the partition functions associated to the Laguerre and Gaussian Unitary Ensembles perturbed with a pole of order $k$ at the origin, in…
We investigate the preservation of unitarity in a Lorentz and CPT-violating QED model containing higher-order operators. In particular, we consider modifications in the fermion sector with dimension-five operators. The higher-order…
This is an update on the quasicentral modulus, an invariant for an n-tuple of Hilbert space operators and a rearrangement invariant norm, that plays a key-role in sharp multivariable generalizations of the classical Weyl-von Neumann-Kuroda…
We consider the deformations of ``monomial solutions'' to Generalized Kontsevich Model \cite{KMMMZ91a,KMMMZ91b} and establish the relation between the flows generated by these deformations with those of $N=2$ Landau-Ginzburg topological…
We consider the simplest gauge theories given by one- and two- matrix integrals and concentrate on their stringy and geometric properties. We remind general integrable structure behind the matrix integrals and turn to the geometric…
We advocate a new approach to the study of unitary matrix models in external fields which emphasizes their relationship to Generalized Kontsevich Models (GKM) with non-polynomial potentials. For example, we show that the partition function…
We consider a linear differential system of Mathieu equations with periodic coefficients over periodic closed orbits and we prove that, arbitrarily close to this system, there is a linear differential system of Hamiltonian damped Mathieu…
We review the basic aspects of the perturbative QCD based on the operator product expansion to analyze the nucleon structure functions in a pedagogical way. We explain the non-trivial relation between the QCD results and the parton model…
Perturbation theory of vacuum spherically-symmetric spacetimes is a crucial tool to understand the dynamics of black hole perturbations. Spherical symmetry allows for an expansion of the perturbations in scalar, vector, and tensor…
It is shown that for the one-dimensional anharmonic oscillator with potential $V(x)= a x^2 + b g x^3 +\ldots=\frac{1}{g^2}\,\hat{V}(gx)$, as well as for the radial oscillator $V(r)=\frac{1}{g^2}\,\hat{V}(gr)$ and for the perturbed Coulomb…
The causal perturbation theory is an axiomatic perturbative theory of the S-matrix. This formalism has as its essence the following axioms: causality, Lorentz invariance and asymptotic conditions. Any other property must be showed via the…
We define multicritical CDT models of 2d quantum gravity and show that they are a special case of multicritical generalized CDT models obtained from the new scaling limit, the so-called "classical" scaling limit, of matrix models. The…
The perturbation theory expansion presented earlier to describe the phase-ordering kinetics in the case of a nonconserved scalar order parameter is generalized to the case of the $n$-vector model. At lowest order in this expansion, as in…
In this talk I discuss both the present status and some recent work on the Kazakov--Migdal Model which was originally proposed as a soluble, large $N$ realization of QCD. After a brief description of the model and a discussion of its…
We exhibit the Kontsevich matrix model with arbitrary potential as a BKP tau-function with respect to polynomial deformations of the potential. The result can be equivalently formulated in terms of Cartan-Pl\"ucker relations of certain…
We show that a normal matrix $A$ with coefficient in $\mathbb C[[X]]$, $X=(X_1, \ldots, X_n)$, can be diagonalized, provided the discriminant $\Delta_A $ of its characteristic polynomial is a monomial times a unit. The proof is an…
We consider a mechanical system consisting of $n$ penduli and a $d$-dimensional generalized rotator subject to a time-dependent perturbation. The perturbation is not assumed to be either Hamiltonian, or periodic or quasi-periodic. The…
In [arXiv:1805.05057 [hep-th]],[arXiv:1812.00811 [hep-th]], the partition function of the Gross-Witten-Wadia unitary matrix model with the logarithmic term has been identified with the $\tau$ function of a certain Painlev\'{e} system, and…
We present exactly solvable modifications of the two-matrix Zinn-Justin-Zuber model and write it as a tau function. The grand partition function of these matrix integrals is written as the fermion expectation value. The perturbation theory…
We propose a new generalized version of the QCD Analytic Perturbation Theory of Shirkov and Solovtsov for the computation of higher-order corrections in inclusive and exclusive processes. We construct non-power series expansions for the…
