A pseudo-unitary ensemble of random matrices, PT-symmetry and the Riemann Hypothesis

چکیده
An ensemble of 2 × 2 pseudo-Hermitian random matrices is constructed that possesses real eigenvalues with level-spacing distribution exactly as for the Gaussian unitary ensemble found by Wigner. By a re-interpretation of Connes’ spectral interpretation of the zeros of Riemann zeta function, we propose to enlarge the scope of search of the Hamiltonian connected with the celebrated Riemann Hypothesis by suggesting that the Hamiltonian could also be PT-symmetric (or pseudo-Hermitian).

Attention has been brought to the possibility that statistical fluctuation properties of several complex spectra, or, well-known number sequences may display strong signatures that the Hamiltonian yielding them as eigenvalues is PT-symmetric (Pseudo-Hermitian). We find that the random matrix theory of pseudo-Hermitian Hamiltonians gives rise to new universalities of levelspacing distributions o...
متن کاملExtreme Gaps between Eigenvalues of Random Matrices
This paper studies the extreme gaps between eigenvalues of random matrices. We give the joint limiting law of the smallest gaps for Haar-distributed unitary matrices and matrices from the Gaussian Unitary Ensemble. In particular, the kth smallest gap, normalized by a factor n, has a limiting density proportional to x3k−1e−x 3 . Concerning the largest gaps, normalized by n/ √ logn, they converge...
متن کاملRandom matrices and L-functions
In recent years there has been a growing interest in connections between the statistical properties of number theoretical L-functions and random matrix theory. We review the history of these connections, some of the major achievements and a number of applications. PACS numbers: 02.10.De, 02.10.Yn 1. The history in brief Number theory and random matrix theory met, by chance, over a cup of tea in...
متن کاملPseudounitary symmetry and the Gaussian pseudounitary ensemble of random matrices.
Employing the currently discussed notion of pseudo-Hermiticity, we define a pseudounitary group. Further, we develop a random matrix theory that is invariant under such a group and call this ensemble of pseudo-Hermitian random matrices the pseudounitary ensemble. We obtain exact results for the nearest-neighbor level-spacing distribution for (2 x 2) PT-invariant Hamiltonian matrices that have f...
متن کامل1 3 Fe b 20 06 On the spacing distribution of the Riemann zeros : corrections to the asymptotic result
It has been conjectured that the statistical properties of zeros of the Riemann zeta function near z = 1/2 + iE tend, as E → ∞, to the distribution of eigenvalues of large random matrices from the Unitary Ensemble. At finite E numerical results show that the nearest-neighbour spacing distribution presents deviations with respect to the conjectured asymptotic form. We give here arguments indicat...
