Open string amplitudes and large order behavior in topological string theory
Marcos Marino
We propose a formalism inspired by matrix models to compute open and closed topological string amplitudes in the B-model on toric Calabi-Yau manifolds. We find closed expressions f…
Phase transitions, double-scaling limit, and topological strings
Nicola Caporaso, Luca Griguolo, Marcos Marino +2
Topological strings on Calabi--Yau manifolds are known to undergo phase transitions at small distances. We study this issue in the case of perturbative topological strings on local…
Blackhole/String Transition for the Small Schwarzschild Blackhole of and Critical Unitary Matrix Models
Luis Alvarez-Gaume, Pallab Basu, Marcos Marino +1
In this paper we discuss the blackhole-string transition of the small Schwarzschild blackhole of using the AdS/CFT correspondence at finite temperature. The fini…
On Chern-Simons Matrix Models
Stavros Garoufalidis, Marcos Marino
The contribution of reducible connections to the U(N) Chern-Simons invariant of a Seifert manifold can be expressed in some cases in terms of matrix integrals. We show that the…
