Corrections to Classical Matrix Ensemble Moments, Non-Crossing Annular Pairings, and Ribbon Graphs

Combinatorics 2025-10-28 v1 Probability

Abstract

We elucidate a bijection between ribbon graphs on the real projective plane and non-crossing annular pairings that relate to the 1/N1/N correction term of the GOE and LOE spectral moments. We also derive analogous objects for the 1/N21/N^2 correction terms of said moments and their equivalents for the GUE and LUE.
