In 1975 K. Michael Day produced an exact formula for the determinants of finite Toeplitz matrices whose symbols are rational. The answer is a sum that involves powers of the roots of the numerator of the symbol and whose coefficients depend…

We extend the formalism of integrable operators a' la Its-Izergin-Korepin-Slavnov to matrix-valued convolution operators on a semi-infinite interval and to matrix integral operators with a kernel of the form E_1^T(x) E_2(y)/(x+y) thus…

We compute the asymptotics of a block Toeplitz determinant which arises in the classical dimer model for the triangular lattice when considering the monomer-monomer correlation function. The model depends on a parameter interpolating…
The purpose of this paper is to compute asymptotically Hankel determinants for weights that are supported in a semi-infinite interval.The main idea is to reduce the problem to determinants of other operators whose determinant asymptotics…
In this paper, we analyze the asymptotic behaviour of the poles of certain rational solutions of the fifth Painlev\'e equation. These solutions are constructed by relating the corresponding tau function to a Hankel determinant of a certain…
We determine the asymptotics of the block Toeplitz determinants $\det T_n(\phi)$ as $n\to\infty$ for $N\times N$ matrix-valued piecewise continuous functions $\phi$ with a finitely many jumps under mild additional conditions. In particular,…
We study the distribution of the smallest eigenvalue for certain classes of positive-definite Hermitian random matrices, in the limit where the size of the matrices becomes large. Their limit distributions can be expressed as Fredholm…
