abstract
Scaling level-spacing distribution functions in the ``bulk of the spectrum'' in random matrix models of $N\times N$ hermitian matrices and then going to the limit $N\to\infty$, leads to the Fredholm determinant of the sine kernel $\sin\pi(x-y)/\pi (x-y)$. Similarly a scaling limit at the ``edge of the spectrum'' leads to the Airy kernel $[{\rm Ai}(x) {\rm Ai}'(y) -{\rm Ai}'(x) {\rm Ai}(y)]/(x-y)$. In this paper we derive analogues for this Airy kernel of the following properties of the sine kernel: the completely integrable system of P.D.E.'s found by Jimbo, Miwa, M{\^o}ri and Sato; the expression, in the case of a single interval, of the Fredholm determinant in terms of a Painlev{\'e} transcendent; the existence of a commuting differential operator; and the fact that this operator can be used in the derivation of asymptotics, for general $n$, of the probability that an interval contains precisely $n$ eigenvalues.

Multicritical Scaling Limit of Shifted Schur Measure
Under multicritical conditions the edge scaling limit of correlations for the shifted Schur measure converges to the higher-order Airy kernel determinant, demonstrating a Pfaffian-to-determinantal transition.

Geometry of the Ising persistence problem and the universal Bonnet-Manin Painlev\'e VI distribution
The full persistence distribution in 1D Ising coarsening equals a Pfaffian Fredholm determinant of the sech kernel and is controlled by a Painlevé VI equation that is the mean curvature of a Bonnet surface.

The Tracy-Widom distribution at large Dyson index
For large beta the TW density takes the form exp(-beta Phi(a)) with Phi(a) obtained as the solution of a Painleve II equation via saddle-point analysis of the stochastic Airy operator.

Long-wavelength amplification of an NLS conserved-charge violation in a one-dimensional Gross-Pitaevskii-Poisson field
The full text conditionally reduces the sound-sector phase of a 1D GPP toy model to a KPZ equation; the metadata abstract describes a different Q3 charge-violation study.

Frozen-corner enumeration of Alternating Sign Matrices
The number of ASMs with an s by s frozen zero corner is conjectured to equal A_n det(1-M), a determinant formula verified numerically for all n up to 20.
