Ghost Symmetry

Based on the W∞ symmetry of the q-deformed Kadomtsev–Petviashvili (q-KP) hierarchy, which is a q-deformation of the KP hierarchy, we construct the quantum torus symmetry of the q-KP hierarchy, which further leads to the quantum torus constraint of its tau function. Moreover, we generalize the system to a multi-component q-KP hierarchy that also has the well-known ghost symmetry.

Hermitian Matrix Model

Abstract We study ћ expansion of the KP hierarchy following Takasaki-Takebe [1] considering several examples of matrix model τ-functions with natural genus expansion. Among the examples there are solutions of KP equations of special interest, such as generating function for simple Hurwitz numbers, Hermitian matrix model, Kontsevich model and Brezin-Gross-Witten model. We show that all these models with parameter ћ are τ-functions of the ћ-KP hierarchy and the expansion in ћ for the ћ-KP coincides with the genus expansion for these models. Furthermore, we show a connection of recent papers considering the ћ-formulation of the KP hierarchy [2, 3] with original Takasaki-Takebe approach. We find that in this approach the recovery of enumerative geometric meaning of τ-functions is straightforward and algorithmic.

Definition Of

Abstract In [1], Nakatsu and Takasaki have shown that the melting crystal model behind the topological strings vertex provides a tau-function of the KP hierarchy after an appropriate time deformation. We revisit their derivation with a focus on the underlying quantum W1+∞ symmetry. Specifically, we point out the role played by automorphisms and the connection with the intertwiner — or vertex operator — of the algebra. This algebraic perspective allows us to extend part of their derivation to the refined melting crystal model, lifting the algebra to the quantum toroidal algebra of $$ \mathfrak{gl} $$ gl (1) (also called Ding-Iohara-Miki algebra). In this way, we take a first step toward the definition of deformed hierarchies associated to A-model refined topological strings.
