| contents | Duality identities in random matrix theory for products and powers of characteristic polynomials, and for moments, are reviewed. The structure of a typical duality identity for the average of a positive integer power $k$ of the characteristic polynomial for particular ensemble of $N \times N$ matrices is that it is expressed as the average of the power $N$ of the characteristic polynomial of some other ensemble of random matrices, now of size $k \times k$. With only a few exceptions, such dualities involve (the $β$ generalised) classical Gaussian, Laguerre and Jacobi ensembles Hermitian ensembles, the circular Jacobi ensemble, or the various non-Hermitian ensembles relating to Ginibre random matrices. In the case of unitary symmetry in the Hermitian case, they can be studied using the determinantal structure. The $β$ generalised case requires the use of Jack polynomial theory, and in particular Jack polynomial based hypergeometric functions. Applications to the computation of the scaling limit of various $β$ ensemble correlation and distribution functions are also reviewed. The non-Hermitian case relies on the particular cases of Jack polynomials corresponding to zonal polynomials, and their integration properties when their arguments are eigenvalues of certain matrices. The main tool to study dualities for moments of the spectral density, and generalisations, is the loop equations. |
