To any solution of a linear system of differential equations, we associate a kernel, correlators satisfying a set of loop equations, and in presence of isomonodromic parameters, a Tau function. We then study their semiclassical expansion…
In this work we show that the $ N\times N $ Toeplitz determinants with the symbols $ z^{\mu}\exp(-{1/2}\sqrt{t}(z+1/z)) $ and $ (1+z)^{\mu}(1+1/z)^{\nu}\exp(tz) $ -- known $\tau$-functions for the \PIIIa and \PV systems -- are characterised…
A $\tau$ function formalism for Sakai's elliptic Painlev'e equation is presented. This establishes the equivalence between the two formulations by Sakai and by Ohta-Ramani-Grammaticos. We also give a simple geometric description of the…
In this paper we study the extension of Painlev\'e/gauge theory correspondence to circular quivers by focusing on the special case of $SU(2)$ $\mathcal{N}=2^*$ theory. We show that the Nekrasov-Okounkov partition function of this gauge…
The WKB theoretic transformation theorem established in [KT2] implies that the first Painleve equation gives a normal form of Painleve equations with a large parameter near a simple P-turning point. In this paper we extend this result and…
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 propose that the grand canonical topological string partition functions satisfy finite-difference equations in the closed string moduli. In the case of genus one mirror curve these are conjectured to be the q-difference Painlev\'e…
The goal of this article is to prove that the determinantal formulas of the Painlev'e 2 system identify with the correlation functions computed from the topological recursion on their spectral curve for an arbitrary non-zero monodromy…
We establish a bilinear framework for elliptic soliton solutions which are composed by the Lam\'e-type plane wave factors. $\tau$ functions in Hirota's form are derived and vertex operators that generate such $\tau$ functions are presented.…
A decomposition of a higher order linear differential operator with polynomial coefficients into a direct sum of two factor operators is obtained. This leads to a lower echelon matrix representation for operators of the above mentioned type…
Equivalence is established between a special class of Painleve VI equations parametrized by a conformal dimension $\mu$, time dependent Euler top equations, isomonodromic deformations and three-dimensional Frobenius manifolds. The…
We study the correlators $W_{g,n}$ arising from Orlov-Scherbin 2-Toda tau functions with rational content-weight $G(z)$, at arbitrary values of the two sets of time parameters. Combinatorially, they correspond to generating functions of…
The KP and 2D Toda tau-functions of hypergeometric type that serve as generating functions for weighted single and double Hurwitz numbers are related to the topological recursion programme. A graphical representation of such weighted…
Two methods of constructing 2D Toda $\tau$-functions that are generating functions for certain geometrical invariants of a combinatorial nature are related. The first involves generation of paths in the Cayley graph of the symmetric group…
We study the WKB expansion of $2\times 2$ system of linear differential equations with four fuchsian singularities. The main focus is on the generating function of the monodromy symplectomorphism which, according to a recent paper is…
The monodromy map for a rank-two system of differential equations with three Fuchsian singularities is classically solved by the Kummer formul\ae\ for Gauss' hypergeometric functions. We define the tau-function of such a system as the…
Generalized convolution symmetries of integrable hierarchies of KP and 2KP-Toda type multiply the Fourier coefficients of the elements of the Hilbert space $\HH= L^2(S^1)$ by a specified sequence of constants. This induces a corresponding…
We put forward the exact version of two-parameter generating functions with $\tau$-invariance, which allows us to give a unified and inherent definition for the Drinfeld realization of two-parameter quantum affine algebras for all the…
We consider a $q$-Painlev\'e III equation and a $q$-Painlev\'e II equation arising from a birational representation of the affine Weyl group of type $(A_2+A_1)^{(1)}$. We study their hypergeometric solutions on the level of $\tau$…
The spectral decomposition for an explicit second-order differential operator $T$ is determined. The spectrum consists of a continuous part with multiplicity two, a continuous part with multiplicity one, and a finite discrete part with…
