$\log\det$ asymptotics of a skew-circulant matrix with additive diagonal bimodal disorder
I'd like to share a problem that I have been dealing with for a longer time now.
In the framework of quenched disorder in the square-lattice Ising model I want to calculate, for large even $M$, the ...

Limiting value of expectation of trace of truncated Gram matrix
Let $n$ and $d$ be large positive integers such that $d/n = a \in (0,1)$, fixed. Let $x_1,\ldots,x_n$ be iid random vectors from $N(0,I_d)$. Fix $b \in (0,1]$ and a unit-vector $v \in \mathbb R^d$, ...

Limiting value of $\dfrac{1}{m}\mathrm{tr}(FAF^\top (FBF^\top)^{-1})$, where $F$ has iide $N(0,1)$ entries and $A,B$ are deterministic
Let $F=F_{m,d}$ be a random $m \times d$ matrix with iid entries from $N(0,1)$. Let $A=A_d$ and $B=B_d$ be deterministic $d \times d$ positive-definite matrices. In case it helps, it may be assumed ...

Norms of Wigner matrices under power law decay
Suppose $\Sigma=\operatorname{diag}(h)$ where $h=(1^{-p},2^{-p},3^{-p},\ldots,d^{-p})$ and $p> 1$
$X$ is a matrix with $b$ rows sampled independently from $\operatorname{Normal}(0,\Sigma)$
Suppose $...

Harish-Chandra–Itzykson–Zuber integral with two terms
We know
$$
\int \mathcal{D}U \exp(\mathrm{Tr}(AUBU^*))
$$
can be computed by Harish-Chandra–Itzykson–Zuber(HCIZ) integral. I am wondering whether it is possible to compute
$$
I=\int \mathcal{D}U \exp(\...

Use statistical physics ideas ("replica trick") to compute asymptotic value of $\inf_{\|w\| \le r} (1/n)\|Xw-y\|^2$ for random $X$ and $y$
I'm trying to get my head around the "replica trick" and it's mathematically rigorous formulations (due to Talagrand, Parchenko, etc.). I was wondering to myself that a solution or insight ...

Using Kac-Rice formula to count average number of sub-regions carved out by $n$ random hyper-planes
Context. This is the first in a set of tiny pieces of a problem I've formulated to help me measure the "complexity" of certain piecewise linear functions. Thanks in advance for your help and patience.

How to mathematically justify the "sampling" over only $100$ random matrices to estimate percolation thresholds?
As mentioned in the textbook "Introduction to Percolation Theory" (Chapter 4) by Stauffer et al., the variation of spanning cluster percolation probability $\Pi$ in a finite $L < \infty$ square ...

Singular values of sparse random real-valued matrix
I was wondering if anyone knew of any results regarding the limiting distribution of singular values for sparse random real-valued matrices?
Specifically, let $X$ be an $N\times M$ matrix with real-...

Matrix model for "$\beta$-Ginibre" ensembles
A very well known result in random matrix theory is that there exists "nice" (i.e., with independent entries) tridiagonal matrix for the $\beta$-ensembles of random matrix theory
$$\propto\prod_{i<...

Random matrices whose limit gives exact Wigner surmise
Let $M$ come from an ensemble of $N\times N$ matrices. The Wigner surmise is density function $p^W_0(s)=\frac{\pi}{2}se^{-\pi s^2/4}$. From a random matrix point of view, we can write $\rho^W_0(s)=\...

Kasteleyn, Gessel-Viennot and eigenvalues
The Kasteleyn matrix (for counting perfect matchings) and the Lindström-Gessel-Viennot matrix (for counting families of nonintersecting lattice paths) are tightly related, as observed many times by ...

When should we expect Tracy-Widom?
The Tracy-Widom law describes, among other things, the fluctuations of maximal eigenvalues of many random large matrix models. Because of its universal character, it obtained his position on the ...
