Isomonodromic Tau Functions on a Torus as Fredholm Determinants, and Charged Partitions
Abstract
We prove that the isomonodromic tau function on a torus with Fuchsian singularities and generic monodromies in GL(N,C) can be written in terms of a Fredholm determinant of Plemelj operators. We further show that the minor expansion of this Fredholm determinant is described by a series labeled by charged partitions. As an example, we show that in the case of SL(2,C) this combinatorial expression takes the form of a dual Nekrasov-Okounkov partition function, or equivalently of a free fermion conformal block on the torus. Based on these results we also propose a definition of the tau function of the Riemann-Hilbert problem on a torus with generic jump on the A-cycle.
