A q-analogue of Mirzakhani’s recursion for Weil-Petersson volumes (English)
[ Abstract ]
I will describe a q-analogue of Mirzakhani's recursion for Weil-Petersson volumes. They recover the Weil-Petersson volumes via a rescaled q to 1 limit and agree with the top degree terms of polynomials recently introduced by Okuyama’s from a q-deformation of the Gaussian Hermitian matrix model.
