The four moment theorem asserts, roughly speaking, that the joint distribution of a small number of eigenvalues of a Wigner random matrix (when measured at the scale of the mean eigenvalue spacing) depends only on the first four moments of…

The main purpose of this paper is to introduce the random tensor with normal distribution, which promotes the matrix normal distribution to a higher order case. Some basic knowledge on tensors are introduced before we focus on the random…
