In the first part of the talk, I review the applications of loop equations to the matrix models and to 2-dimensional quantum gravity which is defined as their continuum limit. The results concerning multi-loop correlators for low genera and…
We propose an improved iterative scheme for calculating higher genus contributions to the multi-loop (or multi-point) correlators and the partition function of the hermitian one matrix model. We present explicit results up to genus two. We…
We study the double scaling limit of mKdV type, realized in the two-cut Hermitian matrix model. Building on the work of Periwal and Shevitz and of Nappi, we find an exact solution including all odd scaling operators, in terms of a hierarchy…
In arXiv:hep-th/0310113 we started a program of creating a reference-book on matrix-model tau-functions, the new generation of special functions, which are going to play an important role in string theory calculations. The main focus of…
We represent the partition function of the Generalized Kontsevich Model (GKM) in the form of a Toda lattice $\tau$-function and discuss various implications of non-vanishing "negative"- and "zero"-time variables: the appear to modify the…
The loop equation for the complex one-matrix model with a multi-cut structure is derived and solved in the planar limit. An iterative scheme for higher genus contributions to the free energy and the multi-loop correlators is presented for…
An iterative scheme is set up for solving the loop equation of the hermitian one-matrix model with a multi-cut structure. Explicit results are presented for genus one for an arbitrary but finite number of cuts. Due to the complicated form…
We derive the loop equations for the d-dimensional n-Hermitian matrix model. These are a consequence of the Schwinger-Dyson equations of the model. Moreover we show that in leading order of large $N$ the loop equations form a closed set. In…
Building on a recent work of \v C. Crnkovi\'c, M. Douglas and G. Moore, a study of multi-critical multi-cut one-matrix models and their associated $sl(2,C)$ integrable hierarchies, is further pursued. The double scaling limits of hermitian…
We introduce a parametrization of the coupling constant space of the generalized Kontsevich models in terms of a set of moments equivalent to those introduced recently in the context of topological gravity. For the simplest generalization…
We reexamine the external field problem for $N\times N$ hermitian one-matrix models. We prove an equivalence of the models with the potentials $\tr{({1/over2N}X^2 + \log X - \Lambda X)}$ and $\sum_{k=1}^\infty t_k\tr{X^k}$ providing the…
The review is devoted to the integrable properties of the Generalized Kontsevich Model which is supposed to be an universal matrix model to describe the conformal field theories with $c<1$. It is shown that the deformations of the…
We compute exact solutions of two--matrix models, i.e. detailed genus by genus expressions for the correlation functions of these theories, calculated without any approximation. We distinguish between two types of models, the unconstrained…
We derive the loop equations for the one Hermitian matrix model in any dimension. These are a consequence of the Schwinger-Dyson equations of the model. Moreover we show that in leading order of large $N$ the loop equations form a closed…
We rewrite the loop equations of the hermitian matrix model, in a way which allows to compute all the correlation functions, to all orders in the topological $1/N^2$ expansion, as residues on an hyperelliptical curve. Those residues, can be…
Even though matrix model partition functions do not exhaust the entire set of tau-functions relevant for string theory, they seem to be elementary building blocks for many others and they seem to properly capture the fundamental symplicial…
In the context of hermitean one--matrix models we show that the emergence of the NLS hierarchy and of its reduction, the KdV hierarchy, is an exact result of the lattice characterizing the matrix model. Said otherwise, we are not obliged to…
We summarize the recent results about complete solvability of Hermitian and rectangular complex matrix models. Partition functions have very simple character expansions with coefficients made from dimensions of representation of the linear…
We take the continuum limit of the \sdeq s of the one and two matrix model without expanding them in the length of the loop. The resulting equations agree with those proposed for string field theory in the temporal gauge. We find that the…
This is a review/announcement of results concerning the connection between certain exactly solvable two-dimensional models of statistical mechanics, namely loop models, and the equivariant $K$-theory of the cotangent bundle of the…
