We expose a functional integration method for the averaging of continuous products $\hat{P}_t$ of $N\times N$ random matrices. As an application, we compute exactly the statistics of the Lyapunov spectrum of $\hat{P}_t$. This problem is…
A random matrix with rows distributed as a function of their length is said to be isotropic. When these distributions are Gaussian, beta type I, or beta type II, previous work has, from the viewpoint of integral geometry, obtained the…
We construct explicit invariant measures for a family of infinite products of random, independent, identically-distributed elements of SL(2,C). The matrices in the product are such that one entry is gamma-distributed along a ray in the…
We derive analytic expressions for infinite products of random 2x2 matrices. The determinant of the target matrix is log-normally distributed, whereas the remainder is a surprisingly complicated function of a parameter characterizing the…
We use an extension of the diagrammatic rules in random matrix theory to evaluate spectral properties of finite and infinite products of large complex matrices and large hermitian matrices. The infinite product case allows us to define a…
The sensitivity of trajectories over finite time intervals t to perturbations of the initial conditions can be associated with a finite-time Lyapunov exponent lambda, obtained from the elements M_{ij} of the stability matrix M. For globally…
In this work, we give a rigorous explicit formula for the Lyapunov exponent for some binary infinite products of random $2\times 2$ real matrices. All these products are constructed using only two types of matrices, $A$ and $B$, which are…
A random phase property establishing a link between quasi-one-dimensional random Schroedinger operators and full random matrix theory is advocated. Briefly summarized it states that the random transfer matrices placed into a normal system…
For products $P_N$ of $N$ random matrices of size $d \times d$, there is a natural notion of finite $N$ Lyapunov exponents $\{\mu_i\}_{i=1}^d$. In the case of standard Gaussian random matrices with real, complex or real quaternion elements,…
We establish large deviation type estimates for i.i.d. products of two dimensional random matrices with finitely supported probability distribution. The estimates are stable under perturbations and require no irreducibility assumptions. In…
The theory of products of random matrices and Lyapunov exponents have been widely studied and applied in the fields of biology, dynamical systems, economics, engineering and statistical physics. We consider the product of an i.i.d. sequence…
We give lower and upper bounds on both the Lyapunov exponent and generalised Lyapunov exponents for the random product of positive and negative shear matrices. These types of random products arise in applications such as fluid stirring…
In this review we summarise recent results for the complex eigenvalues and singular values of finite products of finite size random matrices, their correlation functions and asymptotic limits. The matrices in the product are taken from…
This paper is concerned with the study of random (Bernoulli and Markovian) product of matrices on a compact space of symbols. We establish the analyticity of the maximal Lyapunov exponent as a function of the transition probabilities, thus…
We prove that the Lyapunov exponents of random products in a (real or complex) matrix group depends continuously on the matrix coefficients and probability weights. More generally, the Lyapunov exponents of the random product defined by any…
We show that Lyapunov exponents and stability exponents are equal in the case of product of $i.i.d$ isotropic(also known as bi-unitarily invariant) random matrices. We also derive aysmptotic distribution of singular values and eigenvalues…
It is shown how continuous products of random transformations constrained by a generic group structure can be studied by using Iwasawa's decomposition into ``angular'', ``diagonal'' and ``shear'' degrees of freedom. In the case of a…
In this article we consider the Markovian products of invertible (not necessarily positive) matrices chosen from a strongly irreducible, contracting, finite set of matrices. We construct Markovian transfer operators and prove the spectral…
