Abstract: A multimatrix model can be built on two ingredients: the choice of an embedded graph and the choice of the integrand, that is, a tau function. We compare the simplest nontrivial tau function of the Toda lattice and the simplest nontrivial tau function of the $\mathcal N$-component Toda lattice in the context of their application to multimatrix integrals.

Keywords: tau function, special solution of the multicomponent KP hierarchy, embedded graph, Hurwitz number.
