We explore the size of the largest (permuted) triangular submatrix of a random matrix, and more precisely its asymptotical behavior as the size of the ambient matrix tends to infinity. The importance of such permuted triangular submatrices…

We consider a single particle spectrum as given by the eigenvalues of the Wigner-Dyson ensembles of random matrices, and fill consecutive single particle levels with n fermions. Assuming that the fermions are non-interacting, we show that…
