We study the small scale distribution of the $L^2$ mass of eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on the flat torus $\mathbb T^d$. Given an orthonormal basis of eigenfunctions, we show the existence of a density one subsequence whose $L^2$ mass…

We prove quantitative equidistribution properties for orthonormal bases of eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on the rational $d$-torus. We show that the rate of equidistribution of such eigenfunctions is of polynomial decay. We also prove…
Motivated by problems of mathematical physics (quantum chaos) questions of equidistribution of eigenfunctions of the Laplace operator on a Riemannian manifold have been studied by several authors. We consider here, in analogy with…
We study random spherical harmonics at shrinking scales. We compare the mass assigned to a small spherical cap with its area, and find the smallest possible scale at which, with high probability, the discrepancy between them is small…
Motivated by the problem of the small-scale sign distribution of Laplace eigenfunctions, we introduce a strong notion of sign-balance for (eigen)functions, and prove that random eigenfunctions are sign-balanced above a precisely determined…
We investigate the equidistribution of Hecke eigenforms on sets that are shrinking towards infinity. We show that at scales finer than the Planck scale they do not equidistribute while at scales more coarse than the Planck scale they…
We prove a new quantum variance estimate for toral eigenfunctions. As an application, we show that, given any orthonormal basis of toral eigenfunctions and any smooth embedded hypersurface with nonvanishing principal curvatures, there…
Consider the product of $m$ independent $n\times n$ random matrices from the spherical ensemble for $m\ge 1$. The empirical distribution based on the $n$ eigenvalues of the product is called the empirical spectral distribution. Two recent…
We consider the empirical eigenvalue distribution of an $m\times m$ principal submatrix of an $n\times n$ random unitary matrix distributed according to Haar measure. For $n$ and $m$ large with $\frac{m}{n}=\alpha$, the empirical spectral…
Using numerical exact diagonalization, we study matrix elements of a local spin operator in the eigenbasis of two different nonintegrable quantum spin chains. Our emphasis is on the question to what extent local operators can be represented…
The nodal set of the Laplacian eigenfunction has co-dimension one and has finite hypersurface measure on a compact Riemannian manifold. In this paper, we investigate the distribution of the nodal sets of eigenfunctions, when the metric on…
We prove equidistribution at shrinking scales for the monochromatic ensemble on a compact Riemannian manifold of any dimension. This ensemble on an arbitrary manifold takes a slowly growing spectral window in order to synthesize a random…
We study the problem of mass distribution of Laplacian eigenfunctions in shrinking balls for the standard flat torus $\mathbb{T}^2=\mathbb{R}^2/\mathbb{Z}^2$. By averaging over the centre of the ball we use Bourgain's de-randomisation to…
Let M be an arbitrary Hermitian matrix of order n, and k be a positive integer less than or equal to n. We show that if k is large, the distribution of eigenvalues on the real line is almost the same for almost all principal submatrices of…
The empirical eigenvalue distribution of the elliptic random matrix ensemble tends to the uniform measure on an ellipse in the complex plane as its dimension tends to infinity. We show this convergence on all mesoscopic scales slightly…
Let X be a real or complex Hilbert space of finite but large dimension d, let S(X) denote the unit sphere of X, and let u denote the normalized uniform measure on S(X). For a finite subset B of S(X), we may test whether it is approximately…
