ABCD of beta ensembles and topological strings

We study β-ensembles with B N , C N , and D N eigenvalue measure and their relation with refined topological strings. Our results generalize the familiar connections between local topological strings and matrix models leading to A N measure, and illustrate that all those classical eigenvalue ensembl...

Zusammenfassung:We study β-ensembles with B N , C N , and D N eigenvalue measure and their relation with refined topological strings. Our results generalize the familiar connections between local topological strings and matrix models leading to A N measure, and illustrate that all those classical eigenvalue ensembles, and their topological string counterparts, are elated one to another via various deformations and specializations, quantum shifts and discrete quotients. We review the solution of the Gaussian models via Macdonald identities, and interpret them as conifold theories. The interpolation between the various models is plainly apparent in this case. For general polynomial potential, we calculate the partition function in the multi-cut phase in a perturbative fashion, beyond tree-level in the large-N limit. The relation to refined topological string orientifolds on the corresponding local geometry is discussed along the way.
