Integrable Structure of the Dirichlet Boundary Problem in Multiply-Connected Domains

TLDR
In this article, the integrable structure of the Dirichlet boundary problem in two dimensions was studied and a quasiclassical tau-function was proposed for the multiply-connected case.
Abstract
We study the integrable structure of the Dirichlet boundary problem in two dimensions and extend the approach to the case of planar multiply-connected domains. The solution to the Dirichlet boundary problem in the multiply-connected case is given through a quasiclassical tau-function, which generalizes the tau-function of the dispersionless Toda hierarchy. It is shown to obey an infinite hierarchy of Hirota-like equations which directly follow from properties of the Dirichlet Green function and from the Fay identities. The relation to multi-support solutions of matrix models is briefly discussed.

Normal random matrix ensemble as a growth problem

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the spectral curve as a limit of a spectral curve which is canonically defined for models of finite matrices and interpret the evolution of the eigenvalue distribution as a growth problem, and describe the growth in terms of evolution of spectral curve.
