Correlation functions in a dynamic quartic matrix model are obtained from the two-point function through a recurrence relation. This paper gives the explicit solution of the recurrence by mapping it bijectively to a two-fold nested combinatorial structure each counted by Catalan numbers. These `nested Catalan tables' have a description as diagrams of non-crossing chords and threads.
In this work several techniques to treat the partition function of the real scalar quartic quantum field theory on the Moyal plane is discussed. A factorisation approach requires the polytope volume for the diagonal subpolytope of symmetric stochastic matrices. This is determined asymptotically. The applicability of this method is tested for regime of weak coupling. Here the asymptotic character of the polytope volume alters the matrix structure of the original model leading to fictitious divergences.
The remarkable properties of the real scalar quartic quantum field theory on the Moyal plane in combination with its similarity to the Kontsevich model make the model's partition function an interesting object to study. However, direct evalua- tions is obstructed by the intertwining of the field's various modes. A factorization procedure to circumvent this problem is proposed and discussed here in the context of the real scalar quartic qft on the Moyal plane. This factorization consists of integrating against the asymptotic volume of the diagonal subpolytope of symmet- ric stochastic matrices. This volume has been determined to this end. Using this method the partition function for regime of weak coupling is computed. Using the same method it is as well possible to determine the partition function and free energy density for other regimes.
