Conditional on the extended Riemann hypothesis, we show that with high probability, the characteristic polynomial of a random symmetric $\{\pm 1\}$-matrix is irreducible. This addresses a question raised by Eberhard in recent work. The main…

We study n by n symmetric random matrices H, possibly discrete, with iid above-diagonal entries. We show that H is singular with probability at most exp(-n^c), and the spectral norm of the inverse of H is O(sqrt{n}). Furthermore, the…

We obtain a CLT for $\log|\det(M_n-s_n)|$ where $M_n$ is a scaled Laguerre $\beta$ ensemble and $s_n=d_++\sigma_n n^{-2/3}$ with $d_+$ denoting the upper edge of the limiting spectrum of $M_n$ and $\sigma_n$ a slowly growing function…

The partition function of the random energy model at inverse temperature $\beta$ is a sum of random exponentials $Z_N(\beta)=\sum_{k=1}^N \exp(\beta \sqrt{n} X_k)$, where $X_1,X_2,...$ are independent real standard normal random variables…

Let $X_1,..., X_N\in\R^n$ be independent centered random vectors with log-concave distribution and with the identity as covariance matrix. We show that with overwhelming probability at least $1 - 3 \exp(-c\sqrt{n}\r)$ one has $ \sup_{x\in…

Let $A_n$ be the sum of $d$ permutation matrices of size $n\times n$, each drawn uniformly at random and independently. We prove that the normalized characteristic polynomial $\frac{1}{\sqrt{d}}\det(I_n - z A_n/\sqrt{d})$ converges when…

From the study of the high order freeness of random matrices, it is known that the order $r$ cumulant of the trace of a polynomial of $N$-dimensional GUE/GOE is of order $N^{2-r}$ if $r$ is fixed. In this work, we extend the study along…

Consider a sequence of random polynomials $P_n(z) = \prod_{k=1}^{n}(z - X_k)$, where $\{X_k\}_k$ are i.i.d. random variables distributed uniformly on the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$. Let $\Lambda_n = \{z \in \mathbb{C}: |P_n(z)| < 1\}$ be the…

We find closed formulas for arbitrarily high mixed moments of characteristic polynomials of the Alternative Circular Unitary Ensemble (ACUE), as well as closed formulas for the averages of ratios of characteristic polynomials in this…

Log-linear exponential random graph models are a specific class of statistical network models that have a log-linear representation. This class includes many stochastic blockmodel variants. In this paper, we focus on $\beta$-stochastic…

Let $S$ be a polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $K$ of characteristic $0$. A numerical characterization of all possible extremal Betti numbers of any graded submodule of a finitely generated graded free $S$-module is given.

Exact integral expressions of the skew orthogonal polynomials involved in Orthogonal (beta=1) and Symplectic (beta=4) random matrix ensembles are obtained: the (even rank) skew orthogonal polynomials are average characteristic polynomials…

We investigate the characteristic polynomials $\varphi_N$ of the Gaussian $\beta$-ensemble for general $\beta>0$ through its transfer matrix recurrence. Our motivation is to obtain a (probabilistic) approximation for $\varphi_N$ in terms of…

For $X(n)$ a Steinhaus random multiplicative function, we study the maximal size of the random Dirichlet polynomial $$ D_N(t) = \frac1{\sqrt{N}} \sum_{n \leq N} X(n) n^{it}, $$ with $t$ in various ranges. In particular, for fixed $C>0$ and…
