Gaussian Ensembles of Hermitian matrices H Hermitian random matrix H = H † consists of independent Gaussian entries a) orthogonal ensemble, β = 1 - real random numbers, b) unitary ensemble, β = 2 - complex numbers (real at the diagonal!) c) symplectic ensemble, β = 4 - quaternions (2 × 2 matrices) leading to 2N × 2N matrix with each eigenvalue occurring twice. Different normalization conditions, we use the one implied by the normal distribution 〈Hij〉 = 0 and σ2 = 〈H2 ij 〉 = 1 GUE ⇒ Unitary invariance, P(H) = P(UHU † ) leads to joint probability distribution (jpd) of eigenvalues xi β P − Pβ(x1, . . .,xN) = CNe 2 j x2 j |xj − xk| β j
Wigner Semicircle Law Spectral density P(x) can be obtained by integrating out all eigenvalues but one from jpd. For all three Gaussian ensembles of Hermitian random matrices one obtains (asymptotically, for N → ∞) the Wigner Semicircle Law (1955) P(x) = 1 2 − x2 2π where x denotes a normalized eigenvalue, xi = λi/ √ N K ˙Z (IF UJ/CFT PAN ) Level Spacing Distribution March 14, 2011 5 / 20
