We discuss the 1/N expansion of the free energy of N logarithmically interacting charges in the plane in an external field. For some particular values of the inverse temperature beta this system is equivalent to the eigenvalue version of…

We compute the large scale (macroscopic) correlations in ensembles of normal random matrices with an arbitrary measure and in ensembles of general non-Hermition matrices with a class of non-Gaussian measures. In both cases the eigenvalues…

We propose a random matrix model as a representation for $D=1$ open strings. We show that the model is equivalent to $N$ fermions with spin in a central potential that also includes a long-range ferromagnetic interaction between the…

We present a method, based on loop equations, to compute recursively all the terms in the large $N$ topological expansion of the free energy for the 2-hermitian matrix model. We illustrate the method by computing the first subleading term,…

The theory of random matrices with eigenvalues distributed in the complex plane and more general "beta-ensembles" (logarithmic gases in 2D) is reviewed. The distribution and correlations of the eigenvalues are investigated in the large N…

We consider a planar Coulomb gas ensemble of size $N$ with the inverse temperature $\beta=2$ and external potential $Q(z)=|z|^2-2c \log|z-a|$, where $c>0$ and $a \in \mathbb{C}$. Equivalently, this model can be realised as $N$ eigenvalues…

In general or normal random matrix ensembles, the support of eigenvalues of large size matrices is a planar domain (or several domains) with a sharp boundary. This domain evolves under a change of parameters of the potential and of the size…

For a family of elliptic operators with periodically oscillating coefficients, $-\text{div}( A(\cdot/\varepsilon) \nabla) $ with tiny $\varepsilon>0$, we comprehensively study the first-order expansions of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions…

We consider a family of random normal matrix models whose eigenvalues tend to occupy lemniscate type droplets as the size of the matrix increases. Under the insertion of a point charge, we derive the scaling limit at the singular boundary…

The large-n expansion is developed for the study of critical behaviour of d-dimensional systems at m-axial Lifshitz points with an arbitrary number m of modulation axes. The leading non-trivial contributions of O(1/n) are derived for the…

We review the recent developments in the theory of normal, normal self-dual and general complex random matrices. The distribution and correlations of the eigenvalues at large scales are investigated in the large $N$ limit. The 1/N expansion…

We solve the loop equations to all orders in $1/N^2$, for the Chain of Matrices matrix model (with possibly an external field coupled to the last matrix of the chain). We show that the topological expansion of the free energy, is, like for…

A systematic formulation of the higher genus expansion in topological string theory is considered. We also develop a simple way of evaluating genus zero correlation functions. At higher genera we derive some interesting formulas for the…

Matrix models are a highly successful framework for the analytic study of random two dimensional surfaces with applications to quantum gravity in two dimensions, string theory, conformal field theory, statistical physics in random geometry,…

We consider the normal matrix ensemble under a general confining potential. We find that the eigenvalues condensate on a compact set in the plane, which we call the spectral droplet. We also study the evolution of incrementally adding a…

By extending the Kac-Rice approach to manifolds of finite internal dimension, we show that the mean number $\left\langle\mathcal{N}_\mathrm{tot}\right\rangle$ of all possible equilibria (i.e. force-free configurations, a.k.a. equilibrium…

We establish the existence and uniqueness of the solution to the Dirichlet problem for the variable exponent $p$-Laplacian on a bounded, smooth domain $\Omega \subset {\mathbb R}^n$, where the boundary datum belongs to $W^{1,p}(\Omega)$.…

A four-fermion model in 2+1 dimensions describing N Dirac fermions interacting via SU(N) invariant N^2-1 four-fermion interactions is solved in the leading order of the 1/N expansion. The 1/N expansion corresponds to 't Hoofts topological…

We consider the random matrix ensemble with an external source \[ \frac{1}{Z_n} e^{-n \Tr({1/2}M^2 -AM)} dM \] defined on $n\times n$ Hermitian matrices, where $A$ is a diagonal matrix with only two eigenvalues $\pm a$ of equal…

We study several-matrix models and show that when the potential is convex and a small perturbation of the Gaussian potential, the first order correction to the free energy can be expressed as a generating function for the enumeration of…
