We review a class of matrix models whose degrees of freedom are matrices with anticommuting elements. We discuss the properties of the adjoint fermion one-, two- and gauge invariant D-dimensional matrix models at large-N and compare them…
We study a class of SYK models with $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetry, described by $N$ fermions in chiral Fermi multiplets, as well as $\alpha N$ first-order bosons in chiral multiplets. The interactions are characterized by two integers…
Recently developed methods for PT-symmetric models can be applied to quantum-mechanical matrix and vector models. In matrix models, the calculation of all singlet wave functions can be reduced to the solution a one-dimensional PT-symmetric…
We explore different limits of exactly solvable vector and matrix fermionic quantum mechanical models with quartic interactions at finite temperature. The models preserve a $U(1)\times SU(N)\times SU(L)$ symmetry at the classical level and…
A fermionic random matrix model, which is a 0-dimensional version of the SYK model with replicas, is considered. The replica-off-diagonal correlation functions vanish at finite N, but we show that they do not vanish in the large N limit due…
We formulate the high temperature expansion in supersymmetric matrix quantum mechanics with 4, 8 and 16 supercharges. The models can be obtained by dimensionally reducing N=1 U(N) super Yang-Mills theory in D=4,6,10 to 1 dimension,…
We describe the large $N$ saddle point, and the structure of fluctuations about the saddle point, of a theory containing a sharp, critical Fermi surface in two spatial dimensions. The theory describes the onset of Ising order in a Fermi…
We apply the Gaussian expansion method to the BFSS matrix model in the high temperature limit. When the (Euclidean) BFSS action is expanded about a Gaussian ansatz, it is shown that the SO(9) symmetry is spontaneously broken, analogous to…
In this paper the large $N$ limit of one hermitian matrix models coupled to an external matrix is considered. It is shown that in the large N limit the number of degrees of freedom are reduced to be order N even though it is order $N^{2}$…

We study in detail certain brane solutions with compact extra dimensions M^4 x K in the IKKT matrix model, with K being a two-dimensional rotating torus embedded in R^6. We focus on the compactification moduli and the fluctuations of K…
It has been argued that the bosonic large-$N$ master field of the IIB matrix model can give rise to an emergent classical spacetime. In a recent paper, we have obtained solutions of a simplified bosonic master-field equation from a related…
The massive N-flavor Schwinger model is analyzed by the bosonization method. The problem is reduced to the quantum mechanics of N degrees of freedom in which the potential needs to be self-consistently determined by its ground-state wave…
The large N limit of the hermitian matrix model in three and four Euclidean space-time dimensions is studied with the help of the approximate Renormalization Group recursion formula. The planar graphs contributing to wave function, mass and…
We search for infrared fixed points of Gross-Neveu Yukawa models with matrix degrees of freedom in $d=4-\varepsilon$. We consider three models -- a model with $SU(N)$ symmetry in which the scalar and fermionic fields both transform in the…
We study the large-N limit of a class of matrix models for dually weighted triangulated random surfaces using character expansion techniques. We show that for various choices of the weights of vertices of the dynamical triangulation the…
A four-fermion model in 2+1 dimensions describing N Dirac fermions interacting via SU(N) invariant N^2-1 four-fermion interactions is solved in the leading order of the 1/N expansion. The 1/N expansion corresponds to 't Hoofts topological…
We consider the fuzzy 4-sphere $S_N^4$ as a background in the IKKT matrix model and explore the relation between $S_N^4$ and fuzzy twistor space in the semi-classical limit. A novel description for the IKKT-matrix model in terms of…
We consider a variation of $O(N)$-symmetric vector models in which the vector components are Grassmann numbers. We show that these theories generate the same sort of random polymer models as the $O(N)$ vector models and that they lie in the…
This thesis focuses on renormalization of quantum field theories. Its first part considers three tensor models in three dimensions, a Fermionic quartic with tensors of rank-3 and two Bosonic sextic, of ranks 3 and 5. We rely upon the…
