Abstract

In this work exact expressions for the distribution function of the accumulated area swept by reunions and meanders of NN vicious Brownian particles up to time TT are derived. The results are expressed in terms of a generalised Airy distribution function, containing the Vandermonde determinant of the Airy roots. By mapping the problem to an Random Matrix Theory ensemble we are able to perform Monte Carlo simulations finding perfect agreement with the theoretical results.
