Isomonodromic approach to matrix models

Abstract: I will review the notion of isomonodromic tau functions, as 
formulated by the Kyoto school in the 80's and later generalized in the 
works of Malgrange and Bertola. Then I will consider some examples in 
which matrix models, relevant for their applications to combinatorics 
and enumerative geometry, can be identified with isomonodromic tau 
functions. The talk is based on joint works with M. Bertola.
