Isomonodromic tau-function of Hurwitz Frobenius manifolds and its applications

In this work we find the isomonodromic (Jimbo-Miwa) tau-function corresponding to Frobenius manifold structures on Hurwitz spaces. We discuss several applications of this result. First, we get an explicit expression for the G-function (solution of Getzler's equation) of the Hurwitz Frobenius manifolds. Second, in terms of this tau-function we compute the genus one correction to the free energy of hermitian two-matrix model. Third, we find the Jimbo-Miwa tau-function of an arbitrary Riemann-Hilbert problem with quasi-permutation monodromy matrices. Finally, we get a new expression (analog of genus one Ray-Singer formula) for the determinant of Laplace operator in the Poincar\'e metric on Riemann surfaces of an arbitrary genus.Comment: The direct proof of variational formulas on branched coverings is added. The title is modified due to observed coincidence of isomonodromic tau-function of Hurwitz Frobenius manifolds with Bergman tau-function on Hurwitz spaces introduced by the author

1/N21/N^2 correction to free energy in hermitian two-matrix model

Using the loop equations we find an explicit expression for genus 1 correction in hermitian two-matrix model in terms of holomorphic objects associated to spectral curve arising in large N limit. Our result generalises known expression for $F^1$ in hermitian one-matrix model. We discuss the relationship between $F^1$, Bergmann tau-function on Hurwitz spaces, G-function of Frobenius manifolds and determinant of Laplacian over spectral curve

On the isomonodromic tau-function for the Hurwitz spaces of branched coverings of genus zero and one

The isomonodromic tau-function for the Hurwitz spaces of branched coverings of genus zero and one are constructed explicitly. Such spaces may be equipped with the structure of a Frobenius manifold and this introduces a flat coordinate system on the manifold. The isomonodromic tau-function, and in particular the associated $G$-function, are rewritten in these coordinates and an interpretation in terms of the caustics (where the multiplication is not semisimple) is given.Comment: 18 page

Isomonodromic tau function on the space of admissible covers

The isomonodromic tau function of the Fuchsian differential equations associated to Frobenius structures on Hurwitz spaces can be viewed as a section of a line bundle on the space of admissible covers. We study the asymptotic behavior of the tau function near the boundary of this space and compute its divisor. This yields an explicit formula for the pullback of the Hodge class to the space of admissible covers in terms of the classes of compactification divisors.Comment: a few misprints corrected, journal reference adde

Genus one contribution to free energy in hermitian two-matrix model

We compute an the genus 1 correction to free energy of Hermitian two-matrix model in terms of theta-functions associated to spectral curve arising in large N limit. We discuss the relationship of this expression to isomonodromic tau-function, Bergmann tau-function on Hurwitz spaces, G-function of Frobenius manifolds and determinant of Laplacian in a singular metric over spectral curve.Comment: 25 pages, detailed version of hep-th/040116

Multiplicative Functions of Numbers Set and Logarithmic Identities. Shannon and factorial logarithmic Identities, Entropy and Coentrop

The multiplicative functions characterizing the finite set of positive numbers are introduced in the work.With their help we find the logarithmic identities which connect logarithm of sum of the set numbers and logarithmsof numbers themselves. One of them (contained in the work of Shannon) interconnects three information functions:information Hartley, entropy and coentropy. Shannon's identity allows better to understand the meaning andrelationship of these collective characteristics of information (as the characteristics of finite sets and as probabilisticcharacteristics). The factorial multiplicative function and the logarithmic factorial identity are formed also frominitial set numbers. That identity connects logarithms of factorials of integer numbers and logarithm of factorial oftheir sum
