Commutative families in DIM algebra, integrable many-body systems and $q,t$ matrix models

We extend our consideration of commutative subalgebras (rays) in different representations of the $W_{1+\infty}$ algebra to the elliptic Hall algebra (or, equivalently, to the Ding-Iohara-Miki (DIM) algebra $U_{q,t}(\widehat{\widehat{\mathfrak{gl}}}_1)$). Its advantage is that it possesses the Miki automorphism, which makes all commutative rays equivalent. Integrable systems associated with these rays become finite-difference and, apart from the trigonometric Ruijsenaars system not too much familiar. We concentrate on the simplest many-body and Fock representations, and derive explicit formulas for all generators of the elliptic Hall algebra $e_{n,m}$. In the one-body representation, they differ just by normalization from $z^nq^{m\hat D}$ of the $W_{1+\infty}$ Lie algebra, and, in the $N$-body case, they are non-trivially generalized to monomials of the Cherednik operators with action restricted to symmetric polynomials. In the Fock representation, the resulting operators are expressed through auxiliary polynomials of $n$ variables, which define weights in the residues formulas. We also discuss $q,t$-deformation of matrix models associated with constructed commutative subalgebras.

Deformation of superintegrability in the Miwa-deformed Gaussian matrix model

We consider an arbitrary deformation of the Gaussian matrix model parameterized by Miwa variables $z_a$. One can look at it as a mixture of the Gaussian and logarithmic (Selberg) potentials, which are both superintegrable. The mixture is not, still one can find an explicit expression for an arbitrary Schur average as a linear transform of a {\it finite degree} polynomial made from the values of skew Schur functions at the Gaussian locus $p_k=δ_{k,2}$. This linear operation includes multiplication with an exponential $ e^{z_a^2/2}$ and a kind of Borel transform of the resulting product, which we call multiple and enhanced. The existence of such remarkable formulas appears intimately related to the theory of auxiliary $K$-polynomials, which appeared in {\it bilinear} superintegrable correlators at the Gaussian point (strict superintegrability). We also consider in the very detail the generating function of correlators $<(\Tr X)^k>$ in this model, and discuss its integrable determinant representation. At last, we describe deformation of all results to the Gaussian $β$-ensemble.

Two $β$-ensemble realization of $β$-deformed WLZZ models

We consider a two $β$-ensemble realization of the series of $β$-deformed WLZZ matrix models. We demonstrate that such a realization involves $β$-deformed Harish-Chandra-Itzykson-Zuber integrals, one of them providing a coupling to the external field. We also construct Ward identities in the corresponding two $β$-ensemble model, which requires a set of identities for partition function of the one $β$-ensemble in the external field, and a set of identities for the $β$-deformed Itzykson-Zuber integral. These both sets of identities are formulated in terms of the Dunkl operators.

$β$-WLZZ models from $β$-ensemble integrals directly

Recently, we performed a two $β$-ensemble realization of the series of $β$-deformed WLZZ matrix models involving $β$-deformed Harish-Chandra-Itzykson-Zuber integrals. The realization was derived and studied by using Ward identities, which do not allow one to fix integration contours, these latter were chosen to be real axis for one $β$-ensemble and imaginary axis for the other one basing on some particular checks. Here, we evaluate the $β$-ensemble integrals directly using a conjecture by I.G. Macdonald, and explain that another choice of integration contours is also possible.

Summing up perturbation series around superintegrable point

We work out explicit formulas for correlators in the Gaussian matrix model perturbed by a logarithmic potential, i.e. by inserting Miwa variables. In this paper, we concentrate on the example of a single Miwa variable. The ordinary Gaussian model is superintegrable, i.e. the average of the Schur functions $S_Q$ is an explicit function of the Young diagram $Q$. The question is what happens to this property after perturbation. We show that the entire perturbation series can be nicely summed up into a kind of Borel transform of a universal exponential function, while the dependence on $R$ enters through a polynomial factor in front of this exponential. Moreover, these polynomials can be described explicitly through a single additional structure, which we call ``truncation'' of the Young diagram $Q$. It is unclear if one can call this an extended superintegrability, but at least it is a tremendously simple deformation of it. Moreover, the vanishing Gaussian correlators remain vanishing and, hence, are not deformed at all.

$W_{1+\infty}$ and $\widetilde W$ algebras, and Ward identities

It was demonstrated recently that the $W_{1+\infty}$ algebra contains commutative subalgebras associated with all integer slope rays (including the vertical one). In this paper, we realize that every element of such a ray is associated with a generalized $\widetilde W$ algebra. In particular, the simplest commutative subalgebra associated with the rational Calogero Hamiltonians is associated with the $\widetilde W$ algebras studied earlier. We suggest a definition of the generalized $\widetilde W$ algebra as differential operators in variables $p_k$ basing on the matrix realization of the $W_{1+\infty}$ algebra, and also suggest an unambiguous recursive definition, which, however, involves more elements of the $W_{1+\infty}$ algebra than is contained in its commutative subalgebras. The positive integer rays are associated with $\widetilde W$ algebras that form sets of Ward identities for the WLZZ matrix models, while the vertical ray associated with the trigonometric Calogero-Sutherland model describes the hypergeometric $τ$-functions corresponding to the completed cycles.

On bilinear superintegrability for monomial matrix models in pure phase

We argue that the recently discovered bilinear superintegrability arXiv:2206.02045 generalizes, in a non-trivial way, to monomial matrix models in pure phase. The structure is much richer: for the trivial core Schur functions required modifications are minor, and the only new ingredient is a certain (contour-dependent) permutation matrix; for non-trivial-core Schur functions, in both bi-linear and tri-linear averages the deformation is more complicated: averages acquire extra N-dependent factors and selection rule is less straightforward to imply.

Commutative families in $W_\infty$, integrable many-body systems and hypergeometric $τ$-functions

We explain that the set of new integrable systems generalizing the Calogero family and implied by the study of WLZZ models, which was described in arXiv:2303.05273, is only the tip of the iceberg. We provide its wide generalization and explain that it is related to commutative subalgebras (Hamiltonians) of the $W_{1+\infty}$ algebra. We construct many such subalgebras and explain how they look in various representations. We start from the even simpler $w_\infty$ contraction, then proceed to the one-body representation in terms of differential operators on a circle, further generalizing to matrices and in their eigenvalues, in finally to the bosonic representation in terms of time-variables. Moreover, we explain that some of the subalgebras survive the $β$-deformation, an intermediate step from $W_{1+\infty}$ to the affine Yangian. The very explicit formulas for the corresponding Hamiltonians in these cases are provided. Integrable many-body systems generalizing the rational Calogero model arise in the representation in terms of eigenvalues. Each element of $W_{1+\infty}$ algebra gives rise to KP/Toda $τ$-functions. The hidden symmetry given by the families of commuting Hamiltonians is in charge of the special, (skew) hypergeometric $τ$-functions among these.

Commutative subalgebras from Serre relations

We demonstrate that commutativity of numerous one-dimensional subalgebras in $W_{1+\infty}$ algebra, i.e. the existence of many non-trivial integrable systems described in recent arXiv:2303.05273 follows from the subset of relations in algebra known as Serre relations. No other relations are needed for commutativity. The Serre relations survive the deformation to the affine Yangian $Y(\hat{\mathfrak{gl}}_1)$, hence the commutative subalgebras do as well. A special case of the Yangian parameters corresponds to the $β$-deformation. The preservation of Serre relations can be thought of a selection rule for proper systems of commuting $β$-deformed Hamiltonians. On the contrary, commutativity in the extended family associated with ``rational (non-integer) rays" is {\it not} reduced to the Serre relations, and uses also other relations in the $W_{1+\infty}$ algebra. Thus their $β$-deformation is less straightforward.

$(q,t)$-deformed (skew) Hurwitz $τ$-functions

We follow the general recipe for constructing commutative families of $W$-operators, which provides Hurwitz-like expansions in symmetric functions (Macdonald polynomials), in order to obtain a difference operator example that gives rise to a $(q,t)$-deformation of the earlier studied models. As before, a key role is played by an appropriate deformation of the cut-and-join rotation operator. We outline its expression both in terms of generators of the quantum toroidal algebra and in terms of the Macdonald difference operators.

On KP-integrable skew Hurwitz $τ$-functions and their $β$-deformations

We extend the old formalism of cut-and-join operators in the theory of Hurwitz $τ$-functions to description of a wide family of KP-integrable {\it skew} Hurwitz $τ$-functions, which include, in particular, the newly discovered interpolating WLZZ models. Recently, the simplest of them was related to a superintegrable two-matrix model with two potentials and one external matrix field. Now we provide detailed proofs, and a generalization to a multi-matrix representation, and propose the $β$ deformation of the matrix model as well. The general interpolating WLZZ model is generated by a $W$-representation given by a sum of operators from a one-parametric commutative sub-family (a commutative subalgebra of $w_\infty$). Different commutative families are related by cut-and-join rotations. Two of these sub-families (`vertical' and `45-degree') turn out to be nothing but the trigonometric and rational Calogero-Sutherland Hamiltonians, the `horizontal' family is represented by simple derivatives. Other families require an additional analysis.

$W$-representations for multi-character partition functions and their $β$-deformations

In this letter we continue the development of $W$-representations. We propose several generalizations of the known models, such as the hypergeometric Hurwitz $τ$-functions. We construct $W$-representations for multi-character expansions, which involve a generic number of sets of time variables. We propose integral representations for such kind of partition functions which are given by tensor models and multi-matrix models with multi-trace couplings. We further propose the $β$-deformation of the discussed $W$-representation for the Hurwitz case for two sets of times as well as for the multi-character case.

Interpolating Matrix Models for WLZZ series

We suggest a two-matrix model depending on three (infinite) sets of parameters which interpolates between all the models proposed in arXiv:2206.13038, and defined there through $W$-representations. We also discuss further generalizations of these WLZZ models realized by $W$-representations associated with infinite commutative families of generators of $w_\infty$-algebra which are presumably related to more sophisticated multi-matrix models. Integrable properties of these generalizations are described by what we call the skew hypergeometric $τ$-functions.

On an alternative stratification of knots

We introduce an alternative stratification of knots: by the size of lattice on which a knot can be first met. Using this classification, we find ratio of unknots and knots with more than 10 minimal crossings inside different lattices and answer the question which knots can be realized inside $3\times 3$ and $5\times 5$ lattices. In accordance with previous research, the ratio of unknots decreases exponentially with the growth of the lattice size. Our computational results are approved with theoretical estimates for amounts of knots with fixed crossing number lying inside lattices of given size.

The "Null-A" superintegrability for monomial matrix models

We find that superintegrability (character expansion) property persists in the exotic sector of the monomial non-Gaussian matrix model, with potential $\Tr X^r$, in pure phase, where the naive partition function $\langle 1 \rangle$ vanishes. The role of the (anomaly-corrected) partition function is played by $\left\langleχ_ρ\right\rangle$ -- the Schur average of the suitably chosen \textit{square} partiton $ρ$; such partitions are well-known to correspond to singular vectors of the Virasoro algebra. Further, non-zero are only Schur averages $\left\langle χ_μ\right\rangle$ for such $μ$ that have $ρ$ as their $r$-core, and superintegrability formula features the value of the \textit{skew} Schur function $χ_{μ/ρ}$ at special point. The associated topological recursion and Harer-Zagier formula generalizations so far remain obscure.

Machine learning of the well known things

Machine learning (ML) in its current form implies that an answer to any problem can be well approximated by a function of a very peculiar form: a specially adjusted iteration of Heavyside theta-functions. It is natural to ask if the answers to the questions, which we already know, can be naturally represented in this form. We provide elementary, still non-evident examples that this is indeed possible, and suggest to look for a systematic reformulation of existing knowledge in a ML-consistent way. Success or a failure of these attempts can shed light on a variety of problems, both scientific and epistemological.

From superintegrability to tridiagonal representation of $β$-ensembles

The wonderful formulas by I.Dumitriu and A.Edelman rewrite $β$-ensemble, with eigenvalue integrals containing Vandermonde factors in the power $2β$, through integrals over tridiagonal matrices, where $β$-dependent are the powers of individual matrix elements, not their differences. These potentially useful formulas are usually deduced from rather complicated and non-transparent combinatorics and are not as widely known as they deserve. We explain that the superintegrability property, i.e. a simple expression of the Gaussian averages of arbitrary Jack polynomials through the same Jack polynomials, is immediately consistent with this tridiagonal representation, which may serve as a clue to its simple and transparent interpretation. For a formal non-perturbative proof, we use the Virasoro constraints, which themselves acquire an interesting structure in the tridiagonal realization. We also attract attention to the surprising spontaneous breakdown of discrete invariance by the tridiagonal measure, which may signal a new interesting anomaly at the elementary level of the basic eigenvalue matrix model.

Superintegrability of matrix Student's distribution

For ordinary matrix models, the eigenvalue probability density decays rapidly as one goes to infinity, in other words, has "short tails". This ensures that all the multiple trace correlators (multipoint moments) are convergent and well-defined. Still, many critical phenomena are associated with an enhanced probability of seemingly rare effects, and one expects that they are better described by the "long tail" models. In absence of the exponential fall-off, the integrals for high moments diverge, and this could imply a loss of (super)integrability properties pertinent to matrix and eigenvalue models and, presumably, to the non-perturbative (exact) treatment of more general quantum systems. In this paper, we explain that this danger to modern understanding could be exaggerated. We consider a simple family of long-tail matrix models, which preserve the crucial feature of superintegrability: exact factorized expressions for a full set of basic averages. It turns out that superintegrability can survive after an appropriate (natural and obvious) analytical continuation even in the presence of divergencies, which opens new perspectives for the study of the long-tail matrix models.
