We compute the monodromy dependence of the isomonodromic tau function on a torus with $n$ Fuchsian singularities and $SL(N)$ residue matrices by using its explicit Fredholm determinant representation. We show that the exterior logarithmic…
We derive a new Hamiltonian formulation of Schlesinger equations in terms of the dynamical $r$-matrix structure. The corresponding symplectic form is shown to be the pullback, under the monodromy map, of a natural symplectic form on the…
We derive Fredholm determinant representation for isomonodromic tau functions of Fuchsian systems with $n$ regular singular points on the Riemann sphere and generic monodromy in $\mathrm{GL}(N,\mathbb C)$. The corresponding operator acts in…
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…
We discuss an extension of the Jimbo-Miwa-Ueno differential 1-form to a form closed on the full space of extended monodromy data of systems of linear ordinary differential equations with rational coefficients. This extension is based on the…
We prove that the isomonodromic tau function on a torus with Fuchsian singularities and generic monodromies in $GL(N,\mathbb{C})$ can be written in terms of a Fredholm determinant of Cauchy-Plemelj operators. We further show that the minor…
Gauss hypergeometric functions with a dihedral monodromy group can be expressed as elementary functions, since their hypergeometric equations can be transformed to Fuchsian equations with cyclic monodromy groups by a quadratic change of the…
We define a tau function for a generic Riemann-Hilbert problem posed on a union of non-intersecting smooth closed curves with jump matrices analytic in their neighborhood. The tau function depends on parameters of the jumps and is expressed…
The isomonodromic tau-function for the Hurwitz spaces of branched coverings of genus zero and one are constructed explicitly. Such spaces may be equipped with the structure of a Frobenius manifold and this introduces a flat coordinate…
The goal of this note is to show that the Riemann-Hilbert problem to find multivalued analytic functions with $SL(2,\mathbb{C})$-valued monodromy on Riemann surfaces of genus zero with $n$ punctures can be solved by taking suitable linear…
Let v be a real polynomial of even degree, and let \rho be the equilibrium probability measure for v with support S; so that v(x)\geq 2\int \log |x-y| \rho (dy)+C_v for some constant C_v with support S. Then S is the union of finitely many…
We consider KP tau function of hypergeometric type $\tau({\bf t},T,{\bf t}^*)$, where the set ${\bf t}$ is the KP higher times and $T,{\bf t}^*$ are sets of parameters. Fixing ${\bf t}^*$, we find that $\tau({\bf t},T,{\bf t}^*)$ is an…
We identify the Kontsevich-Penner matrix integral, for finite size $n$, with the isomonodromic tau function of a $3\times 3$ rational connection on the Riemann sphere with $n$ Fuchsian singularities placed in correspondence with the…
In this work we find the isomonodromic (Jimbo-Miwa) tau-function corresponding to Frobenius manifold structures on Hurwitz spaces. We discuss several applications of this result. First, we get an explicit expression for the G-function…
Generic c=1 four-point conformal blocks on the Riemann sphere can be seen as the coefficients of Fourier expansion of the tau function of Painlev\'e VI equation with respect to one of its integration constants. Based on this relation, we…
We briefly describe what tau-functions in integrable systems are. We then define a collection of tau-functions given as matrix elements for the action of $\widehat{GL_2}$ on two-component Fermionic Fock space. These tau-functions are…
The isomonodromic tau function of the Fuchsian differential equations associated to Frobenius structures on Hurwitz spaces can be viewed as a section of a line bundle on the space of admissible covers. We study the asymptotic behavior of…
We consider the Itzykson-Zuber-Eynard-Mehta two-matrix model and prove that the partition function is an isomonodromic tau function in a sense that generalizes Jimbo-Miwa-Ueno's. In order to achieve the generalization we need to define a…
In our previous work, a unified description as polynomial Hamiltonian systems was established for a broad class of the Schlesinger systems including the sixth Painleve equation and Garnier systems. The main purpose of this paper is to…
A classical way to introduce tau functions for integrable hierarchies of solitonic equations is by means of the Sato-Segal-Wilson infinite-dimensional Grassmannian. Every point in the Grassmannian is naturally related to a Riemann-Hilbert…
