Replica limit of the Toda lattice equation

In a recent breakthrough Kanzieper showed that it is possible to obtain exact nonperturbative random matrix results from the replica limit of the corresponding Painleve equation. In this article we analyze the replica limit of the Toda lattice equation and obtain exact expressions for the two-point function of the Gaussian unitary ensemble and the resolvent of the chiral unitary ensemble. In the latter case both the fully quenched and the partially quenched limit are considered. This derivation explains in a natural way the appearance of both compact and noncompact integrals, the hallmark of the supersymmetric method, in the replica limit of the expression for the resolvent.
