Solvable Quantum Grassmann Matrices
read the original abstract
We explore systems with a large number of fermionic degrees of freedom subject to non-local interactions. We study both vector and matrix-like models with quartic interactions. The exact thermal partition function is expressed in terms of an ordinary bosonic integral, which has an eigenvalue repulsion term in the matrix case. We calculate real time correlations at finite temperature and analyze the thermal phase structure. When possible, calculations are performed in both the original Hilbert space as well as the bosonic picture, and the exact map between the two is explained. At large $N$, there is a phase transition to a highly entropic high temperature phase from a low temperature low entropy phase. Thermal two-point functions decay in time in the high temperature phase.

Fermionic trace relations and supersymmetric indices at finite $N$
The supersymmetric index in a one-fermion matrix model for N=4 SYM is independent of N due to exact cancellations between bosonic and fermionic trace relations.

BPS spectra of $\operatorname{tr}[\Psi^p]$ matrix models for odd $p$
Exact BPS spectra for tr(Ψ^p) matrix models at p=5,7 and small N factor as p^k x^{q_min} (1+x)^N times palindromic polynomial, with mod-p index floors bounding large-N growth between log(2 cos(π/2p)) and log 2.
