The non-Hermitian minor process

Probability 2026-05-21 v1

Abstract

We show that the log-determinant of leading principal minors of large non-Hermitian random matrices converges in distribution to a 2+1 dimensional Gaussian field, which is logarithmically correlated for the parabolic distance, reminiscent to the Edwards-Wilkinson universality class.
