Pseudo-Hermitian system is a class of non-Hermitian system with Hamiltonian satisfying the condition $\eta^{-1}H^\dagger\eta=H$. We develop the in-in and Schwinger Keldysh formalism to calculate cosmological correlators for pseudo-Hermitian…

Under the Neumann constraints, each equation of the KdV hierarchy is decomposed into two finite dimensional systems, including the well-known Neumann model. Like in the case of the Bargmann constraint, the explicit Lax representations are…

We present a calculation of the matter power spectrum covariance matrix ${\rm Cov}(\bf{k}_1,\bf{k}_2)$ that uses power spectrum responses to accurately describe the coupling between large- and small-scale modes beyond the perturbative…

The 2-dimensional U(1) gauge-Higgs model with a topological term is a simple example of a lattice field theory where the complex action problem comes from the topological term. We show that the model can be exactly rewritten in terms of…

We solve the loop equations to all orders in $1/N^2$, for the Chain of Matrices matrix model (with possibly an external field coupled to the last matrix of the chain). We show that the topological expansion of the free energy, is, like for…

We reformulate the abelian tensor multiplet on a curved spacetime with at least two supercharges in a cohomological form where all the bosonic and fermionic fields become tensor fields. These tensor fields are rewritten as fields in loop…

Multi-cut critical points and their macroscopic loop amplitudes are studied in the multi-cut two-matrix models, based on an extension of the prescription developed by Daul, Kazakov and Kostov. After identifying possible critical points and…

Quantum loop models are well studied objects in the context of lattice gauge theories and topological quantum computing. They usually carry long range entanglement that is captured by the topological entanglement entropy. I consider…

We consider the one-loop renormalization of QED in curved space-time with additional Lorentz and/or CPT breaking terms. The renormalization group equations in the vacuum sector are derived. In the special case of Minkowski metric and with…

We expand correlation functions of the Langmann-Szabo-Zarembo (LSZ) model in terms of intersection numbers on the moduli space of complex curves. This provides an explicit, physically motivated example for the expansion of correlation…

The partition functions of Hermitian one-matrix models are known to be tau-functions of the KP hierarchy. In this paper we explicitly compute the elements in Sato grassmannian these tau-functions correspond to, and use them to compute the…

We introduce an extension of the diagrammatic rules in random matrix theory and apply it to nonhermitean random matrix models using the 1/N approximation. A number of one- and two-point functions are evaluated on their holomorphic and…

We show that the 2-matrix string model corresponds to a coupled system of $2+1$-dimensional KP and modified KP ($\KPm$) integrable equations subject to a specific ``symmetry'' constraint. The latter together with the Miura-Konopelchenko map…

The paper contains some new results and a review of recent achievements, concerning the multisupport solutions to matrix models. In the leading order of the 't Hooft expansion for matrix integral, these solutions are described by…

A recently formulated conjecture of Gamayun, Iorgov and Lisovyy gives an asymptotic expansion of the Jimbo--Miwa--Ueno isomonodromic $\tau$-function for certain Painlev\'e transcendents. The coefficients in this expansion are given in terms…

We study $\mathbb Z$- and $\mathbb N$-extensions of interval maps with at most countably many full branches modelling one-dimensional random walks without and with a reflective boundary. We analyse the associated Gurevich pressure and…

We analyze matrix convex functions of a fixed order defined on a real interval by differential methods as opposed to the characterization in terms of divided differences given by Kraus. We obtain for each order conditions for matrix…

We exhibit a mapping identifying Kitaev's quantum double lattice models explicitly as a subclass of Levin and Wen's string net models via a completion of the local Hilbert spaces with auxiliary degrees of freedom. This identification allows…

We study a quite general family of dynamical $r$-matrices for an auxiliary loop algebra ${\cal L}({su(2)})$ related to restricted flows for equations of the KdV type. This underlying $r$-matrix structure allows to reconstruct Lax…

Colored tensor models generalize matrix models in arbitrary dimensions yielding a statistical theory of random higher dimensional topological spaces. They admit a 1/N expansion dominated by graphs of spherical topology. The simplest tensor…
