Abstract
Given a unitarily invariant ergodic measure on Hermitian matrices, it is known that the characteristic function determines (and is determined by) a Polya frequency function . In turn the (finite) measure has the property that the Fourier transform of is an entire function and has real zeroes, for all ; this is very close (but not identical) to a classification of such measures due to Newman. This raises the question of whether there is a direct connection between (e.g. the spectrum of) random Hermitian matrices and the reality of the zeroes of .
