Given a reference random variable, we study the solution of its Stein equation and obtain universal bounds on its first and second derivatives. We then extend the analysis of Nourdin and Peccati by bounding the Fortet-Mourier and…
We elucidate the basic physical mechanisms responsible for the quantum-classical transition in one-dimensional, bounded chaotic systems subject to unconditioned environmental interactions. We show that such a transition occurs due to the…
We introduce kernel estimators for the semicircle law. In this first part of our general theory on the estimators, we prove the consistency and conduct simulation study to show the performance of the estimators. We also point out that…
We propose a simple generalization of the matrix resolvent to a resolvent for real symmetric tensors $T\in \otimes^p \mathbb{R}^N$ of order $p\ge 3$. The tensor resolvent yields an integral representation for a class of tensor invariants…
We show that Wigner semi-circle law holds for Hermitian matrices with dependent entries, provided the deviation of the cumulants from the normalised Gaussian case obeys a simple power law bound in the size of the matrix. To establish this…
It is known that the joint limit distribution of independent Wigner matrices satisfies a very special asymptotic independence, called freeness. We study the joint convergence of a few other patterned matrices, providing a framework to…
We construct and study properties of an infinite dimensional analog of Kahane's theory of Gaussian multiplicative chaos \cite{K85}. Namely, if $H_T(\omega)$ is a random field defined w.r.t. space-time white noise $\dot B$ and integrated…
Berry conjecture is central to understanding quantum chaos in isolated systems and foundational for the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis. Here we establish an open-system analogy of the Berry conjecture, connecting quantum steady states…
The model of heavy Wigner matrices generalizes the classical ensemble of Wigner matrices: the sub-diagonal entries are independent, identically distributed along to and out of the diagonal, and the moments its entries are of order 1/N,…
The new phenomenon of semiquantum chaos is analyzed in a classically regular double-well oscillator model. Here it arises from a doubling of the number of effectively classical degrees of freedom, which are nonlinearly coupled in a Gaussian…
For a class of random matrix ensembles with correlated matrix elements, it is shown that the density of states is given by the Wigner semi-circle law. This is applied to effective Hamiltonians related to the Anderson model in dimensions…
Consider the problem of matching two independent i.i.d. samples of size $N$ from two distributions $P$ and $Q$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$. For an arbitrary continuous cost function, the optimal assignment problem looks for the matching that…
We establish a central limit theorem for the log-determinant $\log|\det(M_n)|$ of a Wigner matrix $M_n$, under the assumption of four matching moments with either the GUE or GOE ensemble. More specifically, we show that this log-determinant…
We investigate generalizations of the Cram\'er theorem. This theorem asserts that a Gaussian random variable can be decomposed into the sum of independent random variables if and only if they are Gaussian. We prove asymptotic counterparts…
In this paper, we study the complex Wigner matrices $M_n=\frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}W_n$ whose eigenvalues are typically in the interval $[-2,2]$. Let $\lambda_1\leq \lambda_2...\leq\lambda_n$ be the ordered eigenvalues of $M_n$. Under the…
In this paper, we survey some recent progress on rigorously establishing the universality of various spectral statistics of Wigner Hermitian random matrix ensembles, focusing on the Four Moment Theorem and its refinements and applications,…
We prove propagation of chaos at explicit polynomial rates in Wasserstein distance W_2 for Kac's N-particle system associated with the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation for Maxwell molecules, with and without cutoff. Our approach is…
In this article we study a system of $N$ particles, each of them being defined by the couple of a position (in $\mathbb{R}^d$) and a so-called orientation which is an element of a compact Riemannian manifold. This orientation can be seen as…
This paper extends a previous bound of order $O(n^{-1})$ of the authors (arXiv:1405.7820[math.PR]), for the rate of convergence in Kolmogorov distance of the expected spectral distribution of a Wigner random matrix ensemble to the…
We show that if the non Gaussian part of the cumulants of a random matrix model obey some scaling bounds in the size of the matrix, then Wigner's semicircle law holds. This result is derived using the replica technique and an analogue of…
