Abstract
We study determinantal point processes arising in random domino tilings of a double Aztec diamond, a region consisting of two overlapping Aztec diamonds. At a turning point in a single Aztec diamond where the disordered region touches the boundary, the natural limiting process is the GUE-minor process. Increasing the size of a double Aztec diamond while keeping the overlap between the two Aztec diamonds finite, we obtain a new determinantal point process which we call the tacnode GUE-minor process. This process can be thought of as two colliding GUE-minor processes. As part of the derivation of the particle kernel whose scaling limit naturally gives the tacnode GUE-minor process, we find the inverse Kasteleyn matrix for the dimer model version of the Double Aztec diamond.
