The spectra of recently constructed auxiliary matrices for the six-vertex model respectively the spin s=1/2 Heisenberg chain at roots of unity q^N=1 are investigated. Two conjectures are formulated both of which are proven for N=3 and are…
In a frequency selective slow-fading channel in a MIMO system, the channel matrix is of the form of a block matrix. This paper proposes a method to calculate the limit of the eigenvalue distribution of block matrices if the size of the…
We describe some numerical experiments which determine the degree of spectral instability of medium size randomly generated matrices which are far from self-adjoint. The conclusion is that the eigenvalues are likely to be intrinsically…
The standard notion of the Laplacian of a graph is generalized to the setting of a graph with the extra structure of a ``transmission`` system. A transmission system is a mathematical representation of a means of transmitting…

We derive the distribution of eigenvalues of the reduced density matrix of a block of length l in a one-dimensional system in the scaling regime. The resulting "entanglement spectrum" is described by a universal scaling function depending…
This paper addresses two different but related questions regarding an unbounded symmetric tridiagonal operator: its self-adjointness and the approximation of its spectrum by the eigenvalues of its finite truncations. The sufficient…
It is shown that certain ensembles of random matrices with entries that vanish outside a band around the diagonal satisfy a localization condition on the resolvent which guarantees that eigenvectors have strong overlap with a vanishing…
We consider a class of random permutations of the interval $[-n,n]$, in which points are typically displaced a distance $O(W)$. We show the cycles are localized on the scale $W^3$, with an exponentially decaying tail bound. Analogous to…

The algebra of $n\times n$ matrices over a field $F$ has a natural $\mathbb{Z}_n$-grading. Its graded identities have been described by Vasilovsky who extended a previous work of Di Vincenzo for the algebra of $2\times 2$ matrices. In this…
The transfer matrix is a powerful technique that can be applied to statistical mechanics systems as, for example, in the calculus of the entropy of the ice model. One interesting way to study such systems is to map it onto a 3-color…
Two germs of linear analytic differential systems $x^{k+1}Y^\prime=A(x)Y$ with a non resonant irregular singularity are analytically equivalent if and only if they have the same eigenvalues and equivalent collections of Stokes matrices. The…
We study the asymptotic distribution of the eigenvalues of random Hermitian periodic band matrices, focusing on the spectral edges. The eigenvalues close to the edges converge in distribution to the Airy point process if (and only if) the…
The use of a transfer matrix method to solve the 3D Ising model is straightforwardly generalized from the 2D case. We follow B.Kaufman's approach. No approximation is made, however the largest eigenvalue cannot be identified. This problem…
