We show that Mirzakhani's recursions for the volumes of moduli space of Riemann surfaces are a special case of random matrix loop equations, and therefore we confirm again that Kontsevitch's integral is a generating function for those…

We generalise Mirzakhani's recursion to volumes of moduli spaces of bordered Klein surfaces, which include non-orientable surfaces. On these moduli spaces, the top form introduced by Norbury diverges as the lengths of 1-sided geodesics…

We propose a new proof, as well as a generalization of Mirzakhani's recursion for volumes of moduli spaces. We interpret those recursion relations in terms of expectation values in Kontsevich's integral, i.e. we relate them to a Ribbon…

The Weil-Petersson volumes of moduli spaces of hyperbolic surfaces with geodesic boundaries are known to be given by polynomials in the boundary lengths. These polynomials satisfy Mirzakhani's recursion formula, which fits into the general…

Volumes of moduli spaces of hyperbolic cone surfaces were previously defined and computed when the angles of the cone singularities are at most 2pi. We propose a general definition of these volumes without restriction on the angles. This…
