We consider a class of N=2 conformal SU(N) SYM theories in four dimensions with matter in the fundamental, two-index symmetric and anti-symmetric representations, and study the corresponding matrix model provided by localization on a sphere…
We consider a general framework for integrable hierarchies in Lax form and derive certain universal equations from which `functional representations' of particular hierarchies (like KP, discrete KP, mKP, AKNS), i.e. formulations in terms of…
We study the anomalous dimensions and coefficient functions generated by the BFKL equation in 4+2 epsilon dimensions, by investigating both running coupling effects, and the inclusion of the full next-to-leading kernel. After generalising…
The previously developed renormalizable perturbative 1/N-expansion in higher dimensional scalar field theories is extended to gauge theories with fermions. It is based on the $1/N_f$-expansion and results in a logarithmically divergent…
We study $k$-point correlators of characteristic polynomials in non-Hermitian ensembles of random matrices, focusing on the real, complex and quaternion $N \times N$ Ginibre ensembles. Our approach is based on the technique of character…
We perform a systematic study of kink solutions in two-component scalar field theories in $(1+1)$ dimensions with interaction terms of at most quartic order. Our approach is based on the Bogomolny formalism, constructing scalar potentials…
Coarse-grained theories of dense polymer liquids such as block copolymer melts predict a universal dependence of equilibrium properties on a few dimensionless parameters. For symmetric diblock copolymer melts, such theories predict a…
We compute exact three and four point functions in the W_N minimal models that were recently conjectured to be dual to a higher spin theory in AdS_3. The boundary theory has a large number of light operators that are not only invisible in…
Theories with generalised conformal structure contain a dimensionful parameter, which appears as an overall multiplicative factor in the action. Examples of such theories are gauge theories coupled to massless scalars and fermions with…
We study the \(N=2\), large--\(d\) sector of BFSS/BMN-type matrix quantum mechanics on the lattice in the Gaussian regime. We develop a radial endpoint formulation in which the bulk, gauge, and longitudinal degrees of freedom are integrated…
Permutation invariant polynomial functions of matrices have previously been studied as the observables in matrix models invariant under $S_N$, the symmetric group of all permutations of $N$ objects. In this paper, the permutation invariant…
We discuss recently discovered links of the statistical models of normal random matrices to some important physical problems of pattern formation and to the quantum Hall effect. Specifically, the large $N$ limit of the normal matrix model…
We present a complete basis of multi-trace multi-matrix operators that has a diagonal two point function for the free matrix field theory at finite N. This generalises to multiple matrices the single matrix diagonalisation by Schur…
In a $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal gauge theory with matter hypermultiplets transforming in the symmetric and anti-symmetric representations of SU($N$), we study the integrated correlators of two Coulomb-branch operators and two moment-map…
We show that the two dimensional Calogero-Marchioro Model (CMM) without the harmonic confinement can naturally be embedded into an extended SU(1,1|2) superconformal Hamiltonian. We study the quantum evolution of the superconformal…
The general features of the 1/N expansion in statistical mechanics and quantum field theory are briefly reviewed both from the theoretical and from the phenomenological point of view as an introduction to a more detailed analysis of the…
We present an intuitive diagrammatic representation of a new class of integrable $\s$-models. It is shown that to any given diagram corresponds an integrable theory that couples $N$ WZW models with a certain number of each of the following…
To any solution of a linear system of differential equations, we associate a kernel, correlators satisfying a set of loop equations, and in presence of isomonodromic parameters, a Tau function. We then study their semiclassical expansion…
We study correlation functions in topologically twisted $\mathcal{N}=2, d=4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory for gauge groups of rank larger than one on compact four-manifolds $X$. We find that the topological invariance of the generator…
Some matrix models admit, on top of the usual 't Hooft expansion, an M-theory-like expansion, i.e. an expansion at large N but where the rest of the parameters are fixed, instead of scaling with N. These models, which we call M-theoretic…
