Supersymmetric Virasoro Minimal Strings: Unified Perturbative and Non-Perturbative Treatment
Clifford V. Johnson
There are four known supersymmetric Virasoro minimal string theories, naturally coming in two pairs and labeled as 0A and 0B. We observe here that all four ar…
Extended JT supergravity and random matrix models: The power of the string equation
Clifford V. Johnson, Maciej Kolanowski
A number of supersymmetric Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity theories are known to be described (in the Euclidean path integral formulation) by double-scaled random matrix models. Suc…
Further aspects of Supersymmetric Virasoro Minimal Strings
Clifford V. Johnson
A supersymmetric version of the Virasoro minimal string was defined some time ago using random matrix model techniques. Several of the special properties of the matrix model that w…
A differential equation for a class of correlation kernels
Clifford V. Johnson
A new differential equation is derived for an object , which when integrated over the appropriate range in , yields the kernel with w…
God of the Gaps: Random matrix models and the black hole spectral gap
Clifford V. Johnson, Mykhaylo Usatyuk
We show that random matrix models are a natural tool for understanding the appearance of a large gap in the microstate spectrum of black holes when there is a high degeneracy of st…
