abstract
We lay out an approach to derive the closed string dual to the simplest possible gauge theory, a single hermitian matrix integral, in the conventional 't Hooft large $N$ limit. In this first installment of three papers, we propose and verify an explicit correspondence with a (mirror) pair of closed topological string theories. On the A-model side, this is a supersymmetric $SL(2, \mathbb{R})_1/U(1)$ Kazama-Suzuki coset (with background momentum modes turned on). The mirror B-model description is in terms of a Landau-Ginzburg theory with superpotential $W(Z)=\frac{1}{Z}+t_2Z$ and its deformations. We arrive at these duals through an "open-closed-open triality". This is the notion that two open string descriptions ought to exist for the same closed string theory depending on how closed strings manifest themselves from open string modes. Applying this idea to the hermitian matrix model gives an exact mapping to the Imbimbo-Mukhi matrix model. The latter model is known to capture the physical correlators of the $c=1$ string theory at self-dual radius, which, in turn, has the equivalent topological string descriptions given above. This enables us to establish the equality of correlators, to all genus, between single trace operators in our original matrix model and those of the dual closed strings. Finally, we comment on how this simplest of dualities might be fruitfully viewed in terms of an embedding into the full AdS/CFT correspondence.

An entropic puzzle in periodic dilaton gravity and DSSYK
Gauging a momentum shift symmetry in sine dilaton gravity yields the DSSYK spectrum, makes negative-length states null, and predicts a finite entropy S=2πθ−2θ² instead of the Bekenstein-Hawking area law.

Localization and wall-crossing of giant graviton expansions in AdS$_5$
The 1/2-BPS giant graviton expansions for U(N), SO(2k+1), Sp(k), and SO(2k) N=4 SYM are derived from supersymmetric localization of D3-branes in AdS5, with the analytic continuation explained as wall-crossing in a Lan...

Einstein gravity from a matrix integral -- Part II
Exact localization results for polarized IKKT reveal a divergence in the Ω to 0 limit that is distinct from IKKT, and the large-N eigenvalue dynamics match the electrostatic problem underlying the dual IIB supergravit...

The giant graviton expansion in AdS$_5\times$SE$_5$
Giant-graviton fluctuations on AdS5 imes SE5 are governed by a conical Fock-Darwin system whose lowest Landau level yields the protected finite-N index of the dual N=1 SCFT for T1,1.

$c=1$, $R=1$ and $N\gg 1$: ZZ instantons in 2D String Theory and Matrix Integrals
At self-dual radius, ZZ instanton normalizations from worldsheet string theory match the matrix model trans-series, with SU(2) boundary condition zero modes playing the key role.

Strings from Feynman Diagrams
Every Feynman diagram in a two-matrix model is mapped to a unique closed string worldsheet and Belyi embedding, with the diagram's weight equal to the string action.

Topological A-Model for $AdS_5\times S^5$ Superstring and the Maldacena Conjecture
A topological A-model from CP^{3|4} supertwistors is claimed to reproduce the 't Hooft expansion of N=4 SYM and is related to the pure spinor AdS5×S5 superstring.
