Based on the matrix-resolvent approach, for an arbitrary solution to the discrete KdV hierarchy, we define the tau-function of the solution, and compare it with another tau-function of the solution defined via reduction of the Toda lattice…
Matrix elements in different representations are connected by quadratic relations. If matrix elements are those of a $\textit{group element}$, i.e. satisfying the property $\Delta(X) = X\otimes X$, then their generating functions obey…
The partition function for unitary two matrix models is known to be a double KP tau-function, as well as providing solutions to the two dimensional Toda hierarchy. It is shown how it may also be viewed as a Borel sum regularization of…
Matrix hierarchies are: multi-component KP, general Zakharov-Shabat (ZS) and its special cases, e.g., AKNS. The ZS comprises all integrable systems having a form of zero-curvature equations with rational dependence of matrices on a spectral…

We define a tau function for a generic Riemann-Hilbert problem posed on a union of non-intersecting smooth closed curves with jump matrices analytic in their neighborhood. The tau function depends on parameters of the jumps and is expressed…
In this paper, we consider the higher Br\'ezin--Gross--Witten tau-functions, given by the matrix integrals. For these tau-functions we construct the canonical Kac--Schwarz operators, quantum spectral curves, and $W^{(3)}$-constraints. For…
We consider the Itzykson-Zuber-Eynard-Mehta two-matrix model and prove that the partition function is an isomonodromic tau function in a sense that generalizes Jimbo-Miwa-Ueno's. In order to achieve the generalization we need to define a…
We consider the simplest gauge theories given by one- and two- matrix integrals and concentrate on their stringy and geometric properties. We remind general integrable structure behind the matrix integrals and turn to the geometric…

We extend the matrix-resolvent method for computing logarithmic derivatives of tau-functions to the Ablowitz--Ladik hierarchy. In particular, we derive a formula for the generating series of the logarithmic derivatives of an arbitrary…
Inspired by recent formul\ae\ of Dubrovin, Yang, and Zagier, we interpret the tau function enumerating stationary Gromov-Witten invariants of $\mathbb{P}^1$ as an isomonodromic tau function associated with a difference equation. As a…

Explicit expressions for multimatrix models with complex and unitary matrices allows to couple these models with well-known unitary, orthogonsl and sympletic ensembles. We consider examples of such mixed ensembles which are solvable in the…
