Notes on Planar Resolvents of Chern-Simons-matter Matrix Models

We revisit planar resolvents of matrix models corresponding to ${\cal N}\ge3$ Chern-Simons-matter theories with the gauge groups of the form ${\rm U}(N_1)\times{\rm U}(N_2)$ coupled to any number of bi-fundamental hypermultiplets. We find that the derivative of a suitably defined planar resolvent can be written explicitly. From this resolvent, we derive the explicit formula for (a linear combination of) the vevs of BPS Wilson loops.
