The genus-1 KP-Whitham system is derived for both variants of the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) equation (namely, the KPI and KPII equations). The basic properties of the KP-Whitham system, including symmetries, exact reductions, and its…
Hamiltonian tridiagonal matrices characterized by multi-fractal spectral measures in the family of Iterated Function Systems can be constructed by a recursive technique here described. We prove that these Hamiltonians are almost-periodic.…
We represent an algorithm allowing one to construct new classes of partially integrable multidimensional nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) starting with the special type of solutions to the (1+1)-dimensional hierarchy of…
The vacuum structure of the inert doublet model is analysed at the one-loop level using the effective potential formalism, to verify the validity of tree-level predictions for the properties of the global minimum. An inert minimum (with…
We look for the origins of the single equation, which is a peculiar combination of W-constrains, which provides the non-abelian W-representation for generalized Kontsevich model (GKM), i.e. is enough to fix the partition function…
We consider two dimensional QCD with the spatial dimension compactified to a circle. We show that the states in the theory consist of interacting strings that wind around the circle and derive the Hamiltonian for this theory in the large…
We consider a two-dimensional bi-layered loop model with a certain interlayer coupling and study its spectrum on a torus. Each layer consists of an $O(n)$ model on a honeycomb lattice with periodic boundary conditions; these layers are…
We show that a common Lyapunov matrix exists for the convex combination of two Hurwitz matrices if and only if the intersection of the set of strict Lyapunov matrices for one matrix and the set of non-strict Lyapunov matrices for the other…
We present a diagrammatic formulation of recently-revived covariant functional approaches to one-loop matching from an ultraviolet (UV) theory to a low-energy effective field theory. Various terms following from a covariant derivative…
We consider the deformations of ``monomial solutions'' to Generalized Kontsevich Model \cite{KMMMZ91a,KMMMZ91b} and establish the relation between the flows generated by these deformations with those of $N=2$ Landau-Ginzburg topological…
We give a simple derivation of the Virasoro constraints in the Kontsevich model, first derived by Witten. We generalize the method to a model of unitary matrices, for which we find a new set of Virasoro constraints. Finally we discuss the…
In this contribution we consider stochastic growth models in the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang universality class in 1+1 dimension. We discuss the large time distribution and processes and their dependence on the class on initial condition. This…
We derive the Konishi anomaly equations for N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories based on the classical gauge groups with matter in two-index tensor and fundamental representations, thus extending the existing results for U(N). A general…
We argue that the two-dimensional $O(N)$-invariant lattice $\sigma$-model with mixed isovector/isotensor action has a one-parameter family of nontrivial continuum limits, only one of which is the continuum $\sigma$-model constructed by…
It is explained how a locally convex (lc) topology $\tau$ on a real vector space $V$ extends to a locally multiplicatively convex (lmc) topology $\overline{\tau}$ on the symmetric algebra $S(V)$. This allows the application of the results…
The "loop equations" of random matrix theory are a hierarchy of equations born of attempts to obtain explicit formulae for generating functions of map enumeration problems. These equations, originating in the physics of 2-dimensional…
We give the description of discretized moduli spaces (d.m.s.) $\Mcdisc$ introduced in \cite{Ch1} in terms of a discrete de Rham cohomologies for each moduli space $\Mgn$ of a genus $g$, $n$ being the number of punctures. We demonstrate that…
A manifestly Lorentz-covariant calculus based on two matrix-coordinates and their associated derivatives is introduced. It allows formulating relativistic field theories in any even-dimensional spacetime. The construction extends a…
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…
Random matrices are used in fields as different as the study of multi-orthogonal polynomials or the enumeration of discrete surfaces. Both of them are based on the study of a matrix integral. However, this term can be confusing since the…
