Feynman diagrams, ribbon graphs, and topological recursion of Eynard-Orantin

Abstract: We consider two seemingly unrelated problems, the calculation of the WKB expansion of the harmonic oscillator wave functions and the counting the number of Feynman diagrams in QED or in many-body physics and show that their solutions are both encoded in a single enumerative problem, the calculation of the number of certain types of ribbon graphs. In turn, the numbers of such ribbon graphs as a function of the number of their vertices and edges can be determined recursively through the application of the topolo… Show more

“…In particular, it would be interesting to study whether our work bears some relation to the generalized catalan numbers used in Ref. [17] in the context of the Eynard-Orantin topological recursion, which is another method for enumeration of Feynman diagrams. In this appendix, we write explicitly the terms of ( 46) and (72) that contribute to the asymptotic expansion until a = 6, for the case in which N = 1.…”

“…[11] to get an exact formula and find an equivalence with the Arqués-Béraud formula for one-rooted maps (i.e., objects in algebraic topology) [15]. Particularly, equivalences between the counting of N -rooted maps and connected Feynman diagrams with 2N external legs have been established by means of a directed bijection between these two types of object [16] [17]. Exact formulas related to this algebraic curve topological theory have also been obtained, which, can also be used to count Feynman diagrams.…”

“…A novel graphical bijection between the Feynman and ribbon diagrams can be drawn. A comprehensive review on connections to other types of Feynman diagrams can be found in [38] and recent related works in [39,40]. The tree level diagram corresponds to the one root ribbon graph with zero edges which is a degenerate case.…”

“…, where the notations P and λ (m) are the same as in §2.3. This simply tells us that the abstract correlators F µ g are realized by the correlators of the Hermitian onematrix models if we assign Feynman rule (39). Therefore, the Hermitian one-matrix model is a refinement of the enumeration of fat graphs (see Example 3.1) where the degree of t encoded the number of faces in each graph.…”

“…There is another point of view of the above realization. Instead of considering the realization of the abstract correlators by the Feynman rule (39), we may consider the realization of the abstract free energy and abstract partition function by the following Feynman rule:…”
