在这些讲座中,我回顾了量子理论中的非微扰瞬子效应,重点关注大 N 规范理论和矩阵模型。我首先在常微分方程的情况下考虑这些效应的结构,它为更复杂的理论提供了模型,并且我以教学方式引入了一些来自复兴分析的技术,例如跨级数和斯托克斯现象的复兴版本。在回顾了量子力学和量子场论中的瞬子效应之后,我讨论了大 N 瞬子的一般方面,然后详细回顾了矩阵模型中的非微扰效应。最后,我考虑这些技术在弦理论中的两个应用。
In these lectures I present a review of non‐perturbative instanton effects in quantum theories, with a focus on large N gauge theories and matrix models. I first consider the structure of these effects in the case of ordinary differential equations, which provide a model for more complicated theories, and I introduce in a pedagogical way some technology from resurgent analysis, like trans‐series and the resurgent version of the Stokes phenomenon. After reviewing instanton effects in quantum mechanics and quantum field theory, I address general aspects of large N instantons, and then present a detailed review of non‐perturbative effects in matrix models. Finally, I consider two applications of these techniques in string theory.
