The generating function which counts partitions with the Plancherel measure (and its q -deformed version) can be rewritten as a matrix integral, which allows one to compute its asymptotic expansion to all orders. There are applications in the statistical physics of growing/melting crystals, TASEP (totally asymmetric exclusion processes), and also algebraic geometry. In particular we compute the Gromov–Witten invariants of the Calabi–Yau threefold, and we prove a conjecture of Mariño, that the generating functions F g of Gromov–Witten invariants of X p come from a matrix model, and are the symplectic invariants of the mirror spectral curve.
