Spectral statistics for ensembles of various real random matrices (1704.02715v1)

Abstract: We investigate spacing statistics $p(s)$ and distribution of eigenvalues $D(\epsilon)$ for ensembles of various real random matrices (of order $n \times n, n=2$ and $n>>2$) where the matrix-elements have various Probability Distribution Function (PDF: $f(x)$) including Gaussian. We construct ensembles of $1000$, $100 \times 100$ real random matrices $R$, $C$ (cyclic) and $T$ (tridiagonal) and real symmetric matrices: ${\cal R}'$, ${\cal R}=R+R^t$, ${\cal Q}=RR^t$, ${\cal C}$ (cyclic), ${\cal T}$ (tridiagonal), $T'$ (pseudo-symmetric Tridiagonal), $\Theta$ (Toeplitz) , ${\cal D}=CC^t$ and ${\cal S}=TT^t$. We find that the spacing distribution of the adjacent levels of matrices ${\cal R}$ and ${\cal R}'$ under any symmetric PDF of matrix elements is $p_{AB}(s)=A s e^{-Bs^2}$ which approximately conforms to the Wigner surmise as $A/2 \approx B \approx \pi/4$. But under asymmetric PDFs we observe $A/2 \approx B >>\pi/4$, where $A,B$ are also sensitive to the choice of the matrix and the PDF. More interestingly, the real symmetric matrices ${\cal C}, {\cal T}, {\cal Q}$, $\Theta$ (excepting ${\cal D}$ and ${\cal S}$) and $T'$ (pseudo-symmetric tridiagonal) all conform to the Poisson distribution $p_{\mu}(s) =\mu e^{-\mu s}$, where $\mu$ depends upon the choice of the matrix and PDF. Let complex eigenvalues of $R$, $C$ and $T$ be $E^c_n$. We show that all $p(s)$ arising due to $\Re(E^c_n)$, $\Im(E^c_n)$ and $|E^c_n|$ of $R$, $C$ and $T$ are also of Poisson type: $\mu e^{-\mu s}$. We observe $p(s)$ as half-Gaussian for two real eigenvalues of $C$. For real matrices $R, C, T$, we associate new types of $p(s)$ with them. Lastly, we study the distribution $D(\epsilon)$ of eigenvalues of symmetric matrices (of large order) discussed above.
