Noncommutative probability, matrix models, and quantum orbifold geometry

Abstract: Inspired by the intimate relationship between Voiculescu's noncommutative probability theory (of type A) and large-N matrix models in physics, we look for physical models related to noncommutative probability theory of type B. These turn out to be fermionic matrix-vector models at the double large-N limit. In the context of string theory, they describe different orbifolded string worldsheets with boundaries. Their critical exponents coincide with that of ordinary string worldsheets, but their renormalised tree… Show more

“…The b = 1/2 renormalon of m q [14] has a residue that has been determined with a reasonably high precision [15,16], due to a good convergence behaviour of the series for the residue. First the calculation of this residue will be re-done, focusing on the resulting uncertainties.…”

“…Like the models we studied in Ref. [8], the dual of the Feynman diagrams of this model in the double large-N limit in which we take N v to infinity first and N m to infinity afterwards may be identified as quadrangulated surfaces of the orbifold R 2 /Z 2 × Z 2 . Note that the expression…”

“…The worldsheets involved are orbifolded and respect a Z 2 symmetry which interchanges left-and right-movers. Recently, we have discovered a family of matrix-vector models which not only serve as examples of noncommutative probability of type B [7] but also may be used to study models of orbifolded string worldsheets [8]. The basic ingredients of these models are vectors of square matrices of Grassmann numbers.…”
