Asymptotic Expansion of a Partition Function Related to the Sinh-model

This book elaborates on the asymptotic behaviour, when N is large, of certain N-dimensional integrals which typically occur in random matrices, or in 1+1 dimensional quantum integrable models solvable by the quantum separation of variables. The introducti

An opening discussion

The present work develops techniques enabling one to carry out the largeN asymptotic analysis of a class of multiple integrals that arise as representations for the correlation functions in quantum integrable models solvable by the quantum separation of variables. We shall refer to the general class of such integrals as the sinh-model: zN ½ W  ¼

When b ¼ 1 and for specific choices of the constants x1 ; x2 [ 0 and of the confining potential W, zN represents norms or arises as a fundamental building block of certain classes of correlation functions in quantum integrable models that are solvable by the quantum separation of
