The lowest critical point of one unitary matrix model with cosine plus logarithmic potential is known to correspond with the [Formula: see text] Argyres–Douglas (AD) theory and its double scaling limit derives the Painlevé II equation with parameter. Here, we consider the critical points associated with all cosine potentials and determine the scaling operators, their vacuum expectation values (vevs) and their scaling dimensions from perturbed string equations at planar level. These dimensions agree with those of [Formula: see text] AD theory.

In our recent publications, the partition function of the Gross–Witten–Wadia unitary matrix model with the logarithmic term has been identified with the [Formula: see text] function of a certain Painlevé system, and the double scaling limit of the associated discrete Painlevé equation to the critical point provides us with the Painlevé II equation. This limit captures the critical behavior of the [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] supersymmetric gauge theory around its Argyres–Douglas 4D superconformal point. Here, we consider further extension of the model that contains the [Formula: see text]th multicritical point and that is to be identified with [Formula: see text] theory. In the [Formula: see text] case, we derive a system of two ODEs for the scaling functions to the free energy, the time variable being the scaled total mass and make a consistency check on the spectral curve on this matrix model.

We present the solution of the discrete super-Virasoro constraints to all orders of the genus expansion. Integrating over the fermionic variables we get a representation of the partition function in terms of the one-matrix model. We also obtain the non-perturbative solution of the super-Virasoro constraints in the double scaling limit but do not find agreement between our flows and the known supersymmetric extensions of KdV.

We analyze the double scaling limit of unitary matrix models in terms of trigonometric orthogonal polynomials on the circle. In particular we find a compact formulation of the string equation at the kth multicritical point in terms of pseudodifferential operators and a corresponding action principle. We also relate this approach to the mKdV hierarchy which appears in the analysis in terms of conventional orthogonal polynomials on the circle.

We study in the double scaling limit the two-matrix model which represents the sum over closed and open random surfaces coupled to an Ising model. The boundary conditions are characterized by the fact that the Ising spins sitting at the vertices of the boundaries are all in the same state. We obtain the string equation.

The scaling operators are studied at finite N. We find new singular potentials for which an orthogonal polynomial identity gives the string equation at the double scaling limit. They are free from the degeneracy between even and odd potentials, and provide the mapping between the sl(∞) Toda and the generalized KdV flows. The degeneracy in formal Virasoro conditions are derived explicitly.

Universality with respect to triangulations is investigated in the Hermitian one-matrix model approach to 2-D quantum gravity for a potential containing both even and odd terms, [Formula: see text]. With the use of analytical and numerical calculations, I find that the universality holds and the model describes pure gravity, which leads in the double scaling limit to coupled equations of Painlevé type.
