We review the Symmetric Unitary One Matrix Models. In particular we discuss
the string equation in the operator formalism, the mKdV flows and the Virasoro
Constraints. We focus on the \t-function formalism for the flows and we
describe its connection to the (big cell of the) Sato Grassmannian \Gr via
the Plucker embedding of \Gr into a fermionic Fock space. Then the space of
solutions to the string equation is an explicitly computable subspace of
\Gr\times\Gr which is invariant under the flows.Comment: 20 pages (Invited talk delivered by M. J. Bowick at the Vth Regional
