Abstract

We point out that the transmission eigenvalue density and higher order correlation functions in chaotic cavities for an arbitrary number of incoming and outgoing leads (N1,N2)(N_1,N_2) are analytically known from the Jacobi ensemble of Random Matrix Theory. Using this result and a simple linear statistic, we give an exact and non-perturbative expression for moments of the form <λ1m><\lambda_1^m> for m>N1N21m>-|N_1-N_2|-1 and β=2\beta=2, thus improving the existing results in the literature. Secondly, we offer an independent derivation of the average density and higher order correlation functions for β=2,4\beta=2,4 which does not make use of the orthogonal polynomials technique. This result may be relevant for an efficient numerical implementation avoiding determinants.
