Asymptotics of a Class of Fredholm Determinants
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this expository article we describe the asymptotics of certain Fredholm determinants which provide solutions to the cylindrical Toda equations, and we explain how these asymptotics are derived. The connection with Fredholm determinants arising in the theory of random matrices, and their asymptotics, are also discussed.

Large gap asymptotics at the hard edge for product random matrices and Muttalib-Borodin ensembles
We study the distribution of the smallest eigenvalue for certain classes of positive-definite Hermitian random matrices, in the limit where the size of the matrices becomes large. Their limit distributions can be expressed as Fredholm determinants of integral operators associated to kernels built out of Meijer G-functions or Wright’s generalized Bessel functions. They generalize in a natural wa...

We study Fredholm determinants related to a family of kernels which describe the edge eigenvalue behavior in unitary random matrix models with critical edge points. The kernels are natural higher order analogues of the Airy kernel and are built out of functions associated with the Painlevé I hierarchy. The Fredholm determinants related to those kernels are higher order generalizations of the Tr...

The authors show that a wide class of Fredholm determinants arising in the representation theory of " big " groups such as the infinite–dimensional unitary group, solve Painlevé equations. Their methods are based on the theory of integrable operators and the theory of Riemann–Hilbert problems.
متن کاملAsymptotics of a Class of Operator Determinants
In previous work of C. A. Tracy and the author asymptotic formulas were derived for certain operator determinants whose interest lay in the fact that quotients of them gave solutions to the cylindrical Toda equations. In the present paper we consider a more general class of operators which retain some of the properties of those cited and we find analogous asymptotics for the determinants.
