We obtain exact results in \alpha' for open and closed A-model topological string amplitudes on a large class of toric Calabi-Yau threefolds by using their correspondence with five dimensional gauge theories. The toric Calabi-Yau's that we…

The top Lyapunov exponent $\lambda_+(A, p)$ of a random product of matrices in $\mathrm{GL}(d, \mathbb{R})$, $d \geq 2$, with simple top spectrum, depends real-analytically on the probability weights $p$ and the matrix coefficients $A$. We…
