Spin Hurwitz numbers are related to characters of the Sergeev group, which are the expansion coefficients of the Q Schur functions, depending on odd times and on a subset of all Young diagrams. These characters involve two dual subsets: the…
We define cut-and-join operator in Hurwitz theory for merging of two branching points of arbitrary type. These operators have two alternative descriptions:(i) they have the GL characters as eigenfunctions and the symmetric-group characters…
We present the fermionic representation for the q-deformed hypergeometric functions related to Schur polynomials considered by S.Milne \cite{Milne}. For $q=1$ these functions are also known as hypergeometric functions of matrix argument…
We present a review of the spin Hurwitz numbers, which count the ramified coverings with spin structures. They are related to peculiar $Q$ Schur functions, which are actually related to characters of the Sergeev group. This allows one to…
We study cut-and-join operators for spin Hurwitz partition functions. We provide explicit expressions for these operators in terms of derivatives in $p$-variables without straightforward matrix realization, which is yet to be found. With…
In this paper, we investigate a series of W-type differential operators, which appear naturally in the symmetry algebras of KP and BKP hierarchies. In particular, they include all operators in the W-constraints for tau functions of higher…
We extend the old formalism of cut-and-join operators in the theory of Hurwitz $\tau$-functions to description of a wide family of KP-integrable {\it skew} Hurwitz $\tau$-functions, which include, in particular, the newly discovered…
Some eigenvalue matrix models possess an interesting property: one can manifestly define the basis where all averages can be explicitly calculated. For example, in the Gaussian Hermitian and rectangular complex models, averages of the Schur…
Generalized Kontsevich Matrix Model (GKMM) with a certain given potential is the partition function of $r$-spin intersection numbers. We represent this GKMM in terms of fermions and expand it in terms of the Schur polynomials by…
Let $E$ be a $W^{\ast}$-correspondence over a von Neumann algebra $M$ and let $H^{\infty}(E)$ be the associated Hardy algebra. If $\sigma$ is a faithful normal representation of $M$ on a Hilbert space $H$, then one may form the dual…
Many eigenvalue matrix models possess a peculiar basis of observables which have explicitly calculable averages. This explicit calculability is a stronger feature than ordinary integrability, just like the cases of quadratic and Coulomb…
In this letter we continue the development of $W$-representations. We propose several generalizations of the known models, such as the hypergeometric Hurwitz $\tau$-functions. We construct $W$-representations for multi-character expansions,…
Recently we explained that the classical $Q$ Schur functions stand behind various well-known properties of the cubic Kontsevich model, and the next step is to ask what happens in this approach to the generalized Kontsevich model (GKM) with…
We introduce and investigate a family of tau-functions of the 2D Toda hierarchy, which is a natural generalization of the hypergeometric family associated with Hurwitz numbers. For this family we prove a skew Schur function expansion…
The quantum spectral curve equation associated to KP $\tau$-functions of hypergeometric type serving as generating functions for rationally weighted Hurwitz numbers is solved by generalized hypergeometric series. The basis elements spanning…
This is an overview of recent results on the use of 2D Toda $\tau$-functions as generating functions for multiparametric families of weighted Hurwitz numbers. The Bose-Fermi equivalence composed with the characteristic map provides an…
Recent studies of higher spin theory in three dimensions concentrate on Wilson loops in Chern-Simons theory, which in the classical limit reduce to peculiar corner matrix elements between the highest and lowest weight states in a given…
An identity is derived expressing Schur functions as sums over products of pairs of Schur $Q$-functions, generalizing previously known special cases. This is shown to follow from their representations as vacuum expectation values (VEV's) of…
Linear spinor fields are a generalization of the Dirac field that have direct correspondence with the known physics of fermions, inherent causality properties in their most fundamental constructions, and positive mass eigenvalues for all…
We follow the general recipe for constructing commutative families of $W$-operators, which provides Hurwitz-like expansions in symmetric functions (Macdonald polynomials), in order to obtain a difference operator example that gives rise to…
