In this article we consider Wigner matrices $X_N$ with variance profiles (also called Wigner-type matrices) which are of the form $X_N(i,j) = \sigma(i/N,j/N) a_{i,j} / \sqrt{N}$ where $\sigma$ is a symmetric real positive function of…

We analytically compute the large-deviation probability of a diagonal matrix element of two cases of random matrices, namely $\beta=[\vec H^\dagger\vec H]^{-1}_{11}$ and $\gamma=[\vec I_N+\rho\vec H^\dagger\vec H]^{-1}_{11}$, where $\vec H$…
