abstract
The same complex matrix model calculates both tachyon scattering for the c=1 non-critical string at the self-dual radius and certain correlation functions of half-BPS operators in N=4 super-Yang-Mills. It is dual to another complex matrix model where the couplings of the first model are encoded in the Kontsevich-like variables of the second. The duality between the theories is mirrored by the duality of their Feynman diagrams. Analogously to the Hermitian Kontsevich-Penner model, the correlation functions of the second model can be written as sums over discrete points in subspaces of the moduli space of punctured Riemann surfaces.

Negative heat capacities in spherically symmetric sectors of $d$-matrix quantum mechanics
In SO(d)- and O(d)-invariant sectors of the U(N) d-matrix harmonic oscillator, microcanonical heat capacity is negative at low energy and turns positive at kcrit ~ N^2/4, producing a caloric fold analogous to AdS black holes.
