摘要
I will explain how to reformulate the 6v model on dynamical random lattices as an NxN matrix model. The spectral curve of the 6v matrix model at large N is an infinite envelope of a two-dimensional torus. An explicit global parametrisation is found by elliptic theta functions. The scaling limit where the size of the lattices diverge is achieved when the torus degenerates into an infinite cylinder. It is argued that the scaling limit is described by a c=1 compactified boson coupled to Liouville gravity. The situation is less clear for lattices with boundaries where the boundary observables computed in the matrix model show unusual behaviour and still lack Liouville gravity description.
