چکیده

The purpose of this paper is to describe asymptotic formulas for determinants of certain operators that are analogues of Wiener-Hopf operators. The determinant formulas yield information about the distribution functions for certain random variables that arise in random matrix theory when one rescales at “the edge of the spectrum”.

From Random Matrices to Stochastic Operators

We propose that classical random matrix models are properly viewed as finite difference schemes for stochastic differential operators. Three particular stochastic operators commonly arise, each associated with a familiar class of local eigenvalue behavior. The stochastic Airy operator displays soft edge behavior, associated with the Airy kernel. The stochastic Bessel operator displays hard edge...

Level Spacing Distributions and the Bessel Kernel

Scaling models of random N x N hermitian matrices and passing to the limit N -» oo leads to integral operators whose Fredholm determinants describe the statistics of the spacing of the eigenvalues of hermitian matrices of large order. For the Gaussian Unitary Ensemble, and for many others' as well, the kernel one obtains by scaling in the "bulk" of the spectrum is the "sine kernel" — — . Rescal...

Integrable operators and the squares of Hankel operators

Abstract Integrable operators arise in random matrix theory, where they describe the asymptotic eigenvalue distribution of large self-adjoint random matrices from the generalized unitary ensembles. This paper gives sufficient conditions for an integrable operator to be the square of a Hankel operator, and applies the condition to the Airy, associated Laguerre, modified Bessel and Whittaker func...

Some inequalities involving lower bounds of operators on weighted sequence spaces by a matrix norm

Let A = (an;k)n;k1 and B = (bn;k)n;k1 be two non-negative ma-trices. Denote by Lv;p;q;B(A), the supremum of those L, satisfying the followinginequality:k Ax kv;B(q) L k x kv;B(p);where x 0 and x 2 lp(v;B) and also v = (vn)1n=1 is an increasing, non-negativesequence of real numbers. In this paper, we obtain a Hardy-type formula forLv;p;q;B(H), where H is the Hausdor matrix and 0 < q p 1. Also...

Fredholm Determinants, Differential Equations and Matrix Models

Orthogonal polynomial random matrix models of N x N hermitian matrices lead to Fredholm determinants of integral operators with kernel of the form (φ(x)φ(y) — ψ(x)φ(y))/x — y. This paper is concerned with the Fredholm determinants of integral operators having kernel of this form and where the underlying set is the union of intervals J= [JTM=1 (βij-u Λ2 J ) The emphasis is on the determinants th...
