Description

Matrix valued orthogonal polynomials play a role in random tiling models with periodic weightings. The talk will be focused on lozenge tilings of a hexagon, and it will be shown that the matrix valued orthogonality can be related to orthogonality for meromorphic functions on a Riemann surface. The higher genus cases are of particular interest since these are believed to correspond to random tiling models with three different phases in the large size limit.
