A tau function of the 2D Toda hierarchy can be obtained from a generating function of the two-partition cubic Hodge integrals. The associated Lax operators turn out to satisfy an algebraic relation. This algebraic relation can be used to…
Integrability, one of the classic issues in galactic dynamics and in general in celestial mechanics, is here revisited in a Riemannian geometric framework, where newtonian motions are seen as geodesics of suitable ``mechanical'' manifolds.…
This paper is devoted to the study of qualitative geometrical properties of stochastic dynamical systems, namely their symmetries, reduction and integrability. In particular, we show that an SDS which is diffusion-wise symmetric with…
We show that the generating series of some Hodge integrals involving one or two partitions are tau-functions of the KP hierarchy or the 2-Toda hierarchy respectively. We also formulate a conjecture on the connection between relative…
We survey recent work that relates Pitman's transformation to a variety of classical integrable systems, including the box-ball system, the ultra-discrete and discrete KdV equations, and the ultra-discrete and discrete Toda lattice…
We study the scaling behavior of the entanglement entropy of two dimensional conformal quantum critical systems, i.e. systems with scale invariant wave functions. They include two-dimensional generalized quantum dimer models on bipartite…
We review recent developments in the understanding of the fractal properties of quantum spacetime of 2d gravity coupled to c>0 conformal matter. In particular we discuss bounds put by numerical simulations using dynamical triangulations on…
We use the conformal invariance and the holographic correspondence to fully specify the dependence of entanglement entropy on the extrinsic geometry of the 2d surface $\Sigma$ that separates two subsystems of quantum strongly coupled…
As shown in previous work, there is a well-defined nonperturbative gravitational path integral including an explicit sum over topologies in the setting of Causal Dynamical Triangulations in two dimensions. In this paper we derive a complete…
This note constructs completely integrable convex Hamiltonians on the cotangent bundle of certain k-dimensional torus bundles over an l-dimensional torus. A central role is played by the Lax representation of a Bogoyavlenskij-Toda lattice.…
We present a variational theory of integrable differential-difference equations (semi-discrete integrable systems). This is a natural extension of the ideas known by the names "Lagrangian multiforms" and "Pluri-Lagrangian systems", which…
We show that a natural discretisation of Virasoro algebra yields a quantum integrable model which is the Toda chain in the second Hamiltonian structure.
The tensionless limit of classical string theory may be formulated as a topological theory on the world-sheet. A vector density carries geometrical information in place of an internal metric. It is found that path-integral quantization…
We present results on the relationships between persistent currents and the known conservation laws in the classical Toda ring. We also show that perturbing the integrability leads to a decay of the currents at long times, with a time scale…
Tangencies correspond to singularities of impact systems, separating between impacting and non-impacting trajectory segments. The closure of their orbits constitute the singularity set, which, even in the simpler billiard limit, is known to…
The role of topology change in a fundamental theory of quantum gravity is still a matter of debate. However, when regarding string theory as two-dimensional quantum gravity, topological fluctuations are essential. Here we present a third…
We define a dispersionless tau-symmetric bihamiltonian integrable hierarchy on the space of pairs of functions analytic inside/outside the unit circle with simple poles at $0$/$\infty$ respectively, which extends the dispersionless 2D Toda…
We present a study of a quasi-integrable deformation of the three-particle open Toda chain, constructed by introducing a translation-invariant three-body interaction terms. Although this modification explicitly breaks the exact…
We study confining strings in massive adjoint two-dimensional chromodynamics. Off-shell, as a consequence of zigzag formation, the resulting worldsheet theory provides a non-trivial dynamical realization of infinite quon statistics. Taking…
Integrable two-dimensional models which possess an integral of motion cubic or quartic in velocities are governed by a single prepotential, which obeys a nonlinear partial differential equation. Taking into account the latter's invariance…
