From the standard procedure for constructing Feynman vacuum graphs in $\phi^4$ theory from the generating functional $Z$, we find a relation with sets of certain combinatorial matrices, which allows us to generate the set of all Feynman…
In this paper, we use counting theorems from the geometry of numbers to extend the Riemann-Roch theorem and the Riemann-Hurwitz formula to global fields of arbitrary characteristic.
By employing contour integration the derivation of a generalized double finite series involving the Hurwitz-Lerch zeta function is used to derive closed form formulae in terms of special functions. We use this procedure to find special…
Concise review of the basic properties of unitary matrix integrals. They are studied with the help of the three matrix models: the ordinary unitary model, Brezin-Gross-Witten model and the Harish-Charndra-Itzykson-Zuber model. Especial…
We continue our computation, using a combinatorial method based on Gronthendieck's dessins d'enfant, of the number of (weak) equivalence classes of surface branched covers matching certain specific branch data. In this note we concentrate…
We derive the Konishi anomaly equations for N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories based on the classical gauge groups with matter in two-index tensor and fundamental representations, thus extending the existing results for U(N). A general…
This paper show that two doubly infinite series generate a totally nonnegative Hurwitz-type matrix if and only if their ratio represents an S-functions of a certain kind. The doubly infinite case needs a specific approach, since the ratios…
We define a new Hurwitz problem which is essentially a small core of the simple Hurwitz problem. The corresponding Hurwitz numbers have simpler formulae, satisfy effective recursion relations and determine the simple Hurwitz numbers. We…
We prove a simultaneous generalization of the classical Riemann-Hurwitz and Plucker formulas, addressing the total inflection of a morphism from a (smooth, projective) curve to an arbitrary (smooth, projective) higher-dimensional variety.…
Kontsevitch's work on Airy matrix integrals has led to explicit results for the intersection numbers of the moduli space of curves. In a subsequent work Okounkov rederived these results from the edge behavior of a Gaussian matrix integral.…
We interpret the degrees which arise in Tevelev's study of scattering amplitudes in terms of moduli spaces of Hurwitz covers. Via excess intersection theory, the boundary geometry of the Hurwitz moduli space yields a simple recursion for…
The theory of matrix models is reviewed from the point of view of its relation to integrable hierarchies. Determinantal formulas, relation to conformal field models and the theory of Generalized Kontsevich model are discussed in some…
Generalized unitarity cut of a Feynman diagram generates an algebraic system of polynomial equations. At high-loop levels, these equations may define a complex curve or a (hyper-)surface with complicated topology. We study the curve cases,…
We establish a series of integral formulae involving the Hurwitz zeta function. Applications are given to integrals of Bernoulli polynomials, log Gamma(q) and log sin(q).
In this paper we fully describe functions generating the infinite totally nonnegative Hurwitz matrices. In particular, we generalize the well-known result by Asner and Kemperman on the total nonnegativity of the Hurwitz matrices of real…
In this paper we study the Fuchsian Riemann-Hilbert (inverse monodromy) problem corresponding to Frobenius structures on Hurwitz spaces. We find a solution to this Riemann-Hilbert problem in terms of integrals of certain meromorphic…
We clarify the explicit structure of the Hurwitz quaternion order, which is of fundamental importance in Riemann surface theory and systolic geometry.
We describe an algorithm that, given a k-tuple of permutations representing the monodromy of a rational map, constructs an arbitrarily precise floating-point complex approximation of that map. We then explain how it has been used to study a…
Every matrix polynomial $\mathbf{f}_n$ can be written in the form \[ \mathbf{f}_n(z)=\mathbf{h}(z^2)+z\,\mathbf{g}_n(z^2). \] The matrix polynomial $\mathbf{f}_{2m}$ is said to be of Hurwitz type if the expression…
