In the recent study of Virasoro action on characters, we discovered that it gets especially simple for peculiar linear combinations of the Virasoro operators: particular harmonics of $\hat w$-operators. In this letter, we demonstrate that…
Motivated by the discrete dipole approximation (DDA) for the scattering of electromagnetic waves by a dielectric obstacle that can be considered as a simple discretization of a Lippmann-Schwinger style volume integral equation for…
We introduce {\it conformal multi-matrix models} (CMM) as an alternative to conventional multi-matrix model description of two-dimensional gravity interacting with $c < 1$ matter. We define CMM as solutions to (discrete) extended Virasoro…
We study some properties of tau-functions of an isomonodromic deformation leading to the fifth Painlev\'e equation. In particular, here is given an elementary proof of Miwa's formula for the logarithmic differential of a tau-function.
Recursion relations for orthogonal polynominals, arising in the study of the one-matrix model of two-dimensional gravity, are shown to be equvalent to the equations of the Toda-chain hierarchy supplemented by additional Virasoro…
The problem of construction of integrable boundary conditions for the discrete Toda chain is considered. The restricted chains for properly chosen closure conditions are reduced to the well known discrete Painlev\'e equations $dP_{III}$,…
We establish a representation of the joint moments of the characteristic polynomial of a CUE random matrix and its derivative in terms of a solution of the sigma-Painleve V equation. The derivation involves the analysis of a formula for the…
We discuss the origin of the associativity (WDVV) equations in the context of quasiclassical or Whitham hierarchies. The associativity equations are shown to be encoded in the dispersionless limit of the Hirota equations for KP and Toda…
Generalized convolution symmetries of integrable hierarchies of KP and 2KP-Toda type multiply the Fourier coefficients of the elements of the Hilbert space $\HH= L^2(S^1)$ by a specified sequence of constants. This induces a corresponding…
Heterotic vacua of string theory are realised, at large radius, by a compact threefold with vanishing first Chern class together with a choice of stable holomorphic vector bundle. These form a wide class of potentially realistic…
We present a systematic approach to the construction of Miura transformations for discrete Painlev\'e equations. Our method is based on the bilinear formalism and we start with the expression of the nonlinear discrete equation in terms of…
In these lectures we discuss how the Painleve equations can be written in terms of entire functions, and then in the Hirota bilinear (or multilinear) form. Hirota's method, which has been so useful in soliton theory, is reviewed and…
Employing the Lax pairs of the noncommutative discrete potential Korteweg--de Vries (KdV) and Hirota's KdV equations, we derive differential--difference equations that are consistent with these systems and serve as their generalised…
The correlation discrete variable representation (CDVR) enables efficient quantum dynamics calculation with the multi-layer multi-configurational time-dependent Hartree (MCTDH) approach on general potential energy surfaces. It employs a…
Integrable $\lambda$-deformed $\sigma$-models are characterized by an underlying current algebra/coset model CFT deformed, at the infinitesimal level, by current/parafermion bilinears. We promote the deformation parameters to dynamical…
We derive a Toda-type recurrence relation, in both high and low temperature regimes, for the $\lambda$ - extended diagonal correlation functions $C(N,N;\lambda)$ of the two-dimensional Ising model, using an earlier connection between…
Painleve's transcendental differential equation P_{VI} may be expressed as the consistency condition for a pair of linear differential equations with 2 by 2 matrix coefficients with rational entries. By a construction due to Tracy and…
We present the q-deformed multivariate hypergeometric functions related to Schur polynomials as tau-functions of the KP and of the two-dimensional Toda lattice hierarchies. The variables of the hypergeometric functions are the higher times…
A Miura chain is a (closed) sequence of differential (or difference) equations that are related by Miura or B\"acklund transformations. We describe such a chain for the sixth Painlev\'e equation (\pvi), containing, apart from \pvi itself, a…
The q-Painleve equation, satisfied by the Fourier transform of the q-Virasoro conformal blocks at c=1, is interpreted as a reformulation of the string equation and two other Virasoro constraints in the $5d$ Dotsenko-Fateev matrix model.
