A Hamiltonian formalism for topological recursion
Abstract
A bstract We propose a string field Hamiltonian formalism that associates a class of spectral curves and provides their quantization through the Chekhov-Eynard-Orantin topological recursion. As illustrative examples, we present Hamiltonians for the (2, 2 m – 1) minimal discrete and continuum dynamical triangulation (DT) models, the supersymmetric analogue of minimal continuum DT models, the Penner model, and 4D $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 2 SU (2) gauge theories in the self-dual Ω-background.
