Abstract: Based on the matrix-resolvent approach, for an arbitrary solution to the discrete KdV hierarchy, we define the tau-function of the solution, and compare it with another tau-function of the solution defined via reduction of the Toda lattice hierarchy. Explicit formulae for generating series of logarithmic derivatives of the tau-functions are then obtained, and applications to enumeration of ribbon graphs with even valencies and to the special cubic Hodge integrals are considered.

Review text

The discrete KdV equation (Volterra lattice equation) is an integrable Hamiltonian system in one discrete space variable and one continuous time variable. The single equation is a member of the discrete KdV hierarchy of commuting flows. The authors define the tau-function of the arbitrary solutions to the discrete KdV hierarchy, based on the matrix-resolvent approach. They compare this object with the tau-function of the solutions defined via reduction of the Toda lattice hierarchy. Explicit formulae for generating series of logarithmic derivatives of the tau-functions are obtained. These explicit formulae are used to enumerate ribbon graphs with even valencies and to evaluate certain special cubic Hodge integrals.
