A matrix model for simple Hurwitz numbers, and topological recursion

Published 5 Jun 2009 in math-ph, hep-th, and math.MP | (0906.1206v1)

Abstract: We introduce a new matrix model representation for the generating function of simple Hurwitz numbers. We calculate the spectral curve of the model and the associated symplectic invariants developed in [Eynard-Orantin]. As an application, we prove the conjecture proposed by Bouchard and Marino, relating Hurwitz numbers to the spectral invariants of the Lambert curve exp(x)=y exp(-y).
