abstract

We solve exactly the 6-vertex model on a dynamical random lattice, using its representation as a large N matrix model. The model describes a gas of dense nonintersecting oriented loops coupled to the local curvature defects on the lattice. The model can be mapped to the c=1 string theory, compactified at some length depending on the vertex coupling. We give explicit expression for the disk amplitude and evaluate the fractal dimension of its boundary, the average number of loops and the dimensions of the vortex operators, which vary continuously with the vertex coupling.

Sine-Liouville gravity as a Vertex Model on Planar Graphs

hep-th · 2025-12-21 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

The seven-vertex matrix model realizes sine-Liouville gravity through a shared classical spectral curve with matrix quantum mechanics but distinct branes, with dilute-dense flow analogous to a gravitational massless sine-Gordon flow.
