On uniform large genus asymptotics of Witten's intersection numbers

Abstract

Following ideas from [14], we give a uniform large genus asymptotics for primitive psi-class intersection numbers on the moduli space of stable algebraic curves, and extend this result including insertions of zeros in a certain uniform way. Application to a particular formal solution of the Painlev\'e I equation is given. We also use a method from [14] to give a new proof of the polynomiality conjecture on large genus asymptotic expansions of psi-class intersection numbers.
