BKP Hierarchy, Affine Coordinates, and a Formula for Connected Bosonic $N$-Point Functions

We derive a formula for the connected $n$-point functions of a tau-function of the BKP hierarchy in terms of its affine coordinates. This is a BKP-analogue of a formula for KP tau-functions proved by Zhou in [arXiv:1507.01679]. Moreover, we prove a simple relation between the KP-affine coordinates of a tau-function $τ(\mathbf{t})$ of the KdV hierarchy and the BKP-affine coordinates of $τ(\mathbf{t}/2)$. As applications, we present a new algorithm to compute the free energies of the Witten-Kontsevich tau-function and the Brézin-Gross-Witten tau-function.
