abstract

We compute the complete topological expansion of the formal hermitian two-matrix model. For this, we refine the previously formulated diagrammatic rules for computing the 1/ N expansion of the nonmixed correlation functions and give a new formulation of the spectral curve. We extend these rules obtaining a closed formula for correlation functions in all orders of topological expansion. We then integrate it to obtain the free energy in terms of residues on the associated Riemann surface.

$c=1$ strings as a matrix integral

hep-th · 2026-04-07 · unverdicted · novelty 8.0

The c=1 string perturbative S-matrix equals a double-scaled (0+0)-dimensional matrix integral on the spectral curve x(z)=2√2 cos(z), y(z)=sin(z), establishing triality with worldsheet and matrix quantum mechanics descriptions.

All the D-Branes of Resurgence

hep-th · 2023-01-12 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Negative-tension ZZ-branes are required by resurgence to build complete transseries for minimal-string free energies, with analytic Stokes data and extensions to JT gravity and other string models.
