This study focuses on a multidimensional backward stochastic differential equation (BSDE) with a general random terminal time $\tau$ taking values in $[0,+\infty]$. The generator $g$ satisfies a stochastic monotonicity condition in the…
We review various aspects of integrable hierarchies appearing in N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories. In particular, we show that the blowup function in Donaldson-Witten theory, up to a redefinition of the fast times, is a tau function for a…
MacMahon's classic generating function of random plane partitions, which is related to Schur polynomials, was recently extended by Vuletic to a generating function of weighted plane partitions that is related to Hall-Littlewood polynomials,…
We give a proof of the convergence of the BHZ renormalized model associated with the generalized (KPZ) equation that does not require the full strength of the BPHZ renormalisation. Our approach is based on a convenient form of chaos…
Many combinatorial and other number triangles are solutions of recurrences of the Graham-Knuth-Patashnik (GKP) type. Such triangles and their defining recurrences are investigated analytically. They are acted on by a transformation group…
In this paper we describe explicit generating functions for a large class of Hurwitz-Hodge integrals. These are integrals of tautological classes on moduli spaces of admissible covers, a (stackily) smooth compactification of the Hurwitz…
We derive an explicit generating function of correlations functions of an arbitrary tau-function of the KdV hierarchy. In particular applications, our formulation gives closed formul\ae\ of a new type for the generating series of…

We derive the GKP-Witten relation in terms of correlation functions by symmetry without referring to a Lagrangian or the large $N$ expansion. By constructing bulk operators from boundary operators in conformal field theory (CFT) by the…
We construct a generalization of pure lattice gauge theory (LGT) where the role of the gauge group is played by a tensor category. The type of tensor category admissible (spherical, ribbon, symmetric) depends on the dimension of the…
In this paper, we study Giambelli type formula in the KP and the BKP hierarchies. Any formal power series $\tau(x)$ can be expanded by the Schur functions. It is known that $\tau(x)$ with $\tau(0)=1$ is a solution of the KP hierarchy if and…
