Openness of Regular Regimes of Complex Random Matrix Models

Consider the general complex polynomial external field $$ V(z)=\frac{z^{k}}{k}+\sum_{j=1}^{k-1} \frac{t_j z^j}{j}, \qquad t_j \in \mathbb{C}, \quad k \in \mathbb{N}. $$ Fix an equivalence class $\mathcal{T}$ of admissible contours whose members approach $\infty$ in two different directions and consider the associated max-min energy problem. When $k=2p$, $p \in \mathbb{N}$, and $\mathcal{T}$ contains the real axis, we show that the set of parameters $t_1, \cdots, t_{2p-1}$ which gives rise to a regular $q$-cut max-min (equilibrium) measure, $1 \leq q \leq 2p-1 $, is an open set in $\mathbb{C}^{2p-1}$. We use the implicit function theorem to prove that the endpoint equations are solvable in a small enough neighborhood of a regular $q$-cut point. We also establish the real-analyticity of the real and imaginary parts of the end-points for all $q$-cut regimes, $1 \leq q \leq 2p-1$, with respect to the real and imaginary parts of the complex parameters in the external field. Our choice of even $k$ and the equivalence class $\mathcal{T} \ni \mathbb{R}$ of admissible contours is only for the simplicity of exposition and our proof extends to all possible choices in an analogous way.
