Open intersection numbers and free fields

A complete set of the Virasoro and W-constraints for the Kontsevich–Penner model, which conjecturally describes intersections on moduli spaces of open curves, was derived in our previous work. Here we show that these constraints can be described in terms of free bosonic fields with twisted boundary...
