't Hooft's derivation of quantum from classical physics is analyzed by means of the classical path integral of Gozzi et al.. It is shown how the key element of this procedure - the loss of information constraint - can be implemented by…

We study the one-parameter family of Fredholm determinants $\det(I-\rho^2\mathcal{K}_{n,x})$, $\rho\in\mathbb{R}$, where $\mathcal{K}_{n,x}$ stands for the integral operator acting on $L^2(x,+\infty)$ with the higher order Airy kernel. This…

Orthogonal polynomial random matrix models of NxN hermitian matrices lead to Fredholm determinants of integral operators with kernel of the form (phi(x) psi(y) - psi(x) phi(y))/x-y. This paper is concerned with the Fredholm determinants of…
