Matrix model approximations of fuzzy scalar field theories and their phase diagrams

We present an analysis of two different approximations to the scalar field theory on the fuzzy sphere, a nonperturbative and a perturbative one, which are both multitrace matrix models. We show that the former reproduces a phase diagram with correct features in a qualitative agreement with the previous numerical studies and that the latter gives a phase diagram with features not expected in the phase diagram of the field theory.

Phase strucutre of fuzzy field theories and multitrace matrix models

We review the interplay of fuzzy field theories and matrix models, with an emphasis on the phase structure of fuzzy scalar field theories. We give a self-contained introduction to these topics and give the details concerning the saddle point approach for the usual single trace and multitrace matrix models. We then review the attempts to explain the phase structure of the fuzzy field theory using a corresponding random matrix ensemble, showing the strength and weaknesses of this approach. We conclude with a list of challenges one needs to overcome and the most interesting open problems one can try to solve.

Uniform order phase and phase diagram of scalar field theory on fuzzy $\mathbb C P^n$

We study the phase structure of the scalar field theory on fuzzy $\mathbb C P^n$ in the large $N$ limit. Considering the theory as a hermitian matrix model we compute the perturbative expansion of the kinetic term effective action under the assumption of distributions being close to the semicircle. We show that this model admits also a uniform order phase, corresponding to the asymmetric one-cut distribution, and we find the phase boundary. We compute a non-perturbative approximation to the effective action which enables us to identify the disorder and the non-uniform order phases and the phase transition between them. We locate the triple point of the theory and find an agreement with previous numerical studies for the case of the fuzzy sphere.

Random matrix approach to scalar fields on fuzzy spaces

We formulate theory of interacting scalar field on the fuzzy sphere as a random matrix model. We then analyze the expectation values of observables of the theory in the large N limit and we demonstrate that the eigenvalue distribution of the matrix M remains the polynomially deformed Wigner semicircle. We also compute distributions involving the matrix Laplacian of M and we show that the correlation between the eigenvalues of these two is different from the free field case.
