We consider the eigenvalues of sample covariance matrices of the form $\mathcal{Q}=(\Sigma^{1/2}X)(\Sigma^{1/2}X)^*$. The sample $X$ is an $M\times N$ rectangular random matrix with real independent entries and the population covariance…

We consider random networks whose dynamics is described by a rate equation, with transition rates $w_{nm}$ that form a symmetric matrix. The long time evolution of the system is characterized by a diffusion coefficient $D$. In one dimension…
We study random normal matrix models whose eigenvalues tend to be distributed within a narrow "band" around the unit circle of width proportional to $\frac1n$, where $n$ is the size of matrices. For general radially symmetric potentials…

Random-matrix theory is applied to transition-rate matrices in the Pauli master equation. We study the distribution and correlations of eigenvalues, which govern the dynamics of complex stochastic systems. Both the cases of identical and of…
