For random integer matrices $M_1,\ldots,M_k \in \operatorname{Mat}_n(\mathbb{Z})$ with independent entries, we study the distribution of the cokernel $\operatorname{cok}(M_1 \cdots M_k)$ of their product. We show that this distribution…

In [NVP22], Nguyen and Van Peski raised the question of whether the surjective flag of $\mathbb Z_p$-modules modeled by $\mathrm{cok}(M_1\cdots M_k)\twoheadrightarrow \dots\twoheadrightarrow \mathrm{cok}(M_1)$ for independent random…

In this paper, we study the distribution of the cokernels of random $p$-adic matrices with fixed zero entries. Let $X_n$ be a random $n \times n$ matrix over $\mathbb{Z}_p$ in which some entries are fixed to be zero and the other entries…

Let A be an n by n random matrix with iid entries taken from the p-adic integers or Z/NZ. Then under mild non-degeneracy conditions the cokernel of A has a universal probability distribution. In particular, the p-part of an iid random…

The Cohen-Lenstra heuristic is a universal principle that assigns to each group a probability that tells how often this group should occur "in nature". The most important, but not the only, applications are sequences of class groups, which…

Let $(R, \mathfrak{m})$ be a complete discrete valuation ring with the finite residue field $R/\mathfrak{m} = \mathbb{F}_{q}$. Given a monic polynomial $P(t) \in R[t]$ whose reduction modulo $\mathfrak{m}$ gives an irreducible polynomial…

We prove that given any $\epsilon>0$, random integral $n\times n$ matrices with independent entries that lie in any residue class modulo a prime with probability at most $1-\epsilon$ have cokernels asymptotically (as $n\rightarrow\infty$)…

In this paper, we study cokernels of random $n\times n$ matrices over $\mathbb Z$ with symmetry conditions determined by fixed alternating bilinear forms on $\mathbb Z^n$. These include perturbations of random symmetric matrices at a very…

Let $\mathbf{B}_n$ be an $n\times n$ Haar-uniform band matrix over $\mathbb{Z}_p$ with band width $w_n$. We prove that $\text{cok}(\mathbf{B}_n)$ has Cohen-Lenstra limiting distribution if and only if \[\lim_{n\to\infty}…

In this paper, we make specific conjectures about the distribution of Jacobians of random graphs with their canonical duality pairings. Our conjectures are based on a Cohen-Lenstra type heuristic saying that a finite abelian group with…

For a random matrix of entries sampled independently from a fairly general distribution in Z we study the probability that the cokernel is isomorphic to a given finite abelian group, or when it is cyclic. This includes the probability that…

The goal of this paper is to prove theorems that elucidate the Cohen-Lenstra-Martinet conjectures for the distributions of class groups of number fields, and further the understanding of their implications. We start by giving a simpler…

We use the moment method of Wood to study the distribution of random finite modules over a countable Dedekind domain with finite quotients, generated by taking cokernels of random $n\times n$ matrices with entries valued in the domain.…

We study an irreducible Markov chain on the category of finite abelian $p$-groups, whose stationary measure is the Cohen-Lenstra distribution. This Markov chain arises when one studies the cokernel of a random matrix $M$, after conditioning…

Let $L/K$ be a quadratic extension of global fields. We study Cohen-Lenstra heuristics for the $\ell$-part of the relative class group $G_{L/K} := \textrm{Cl}(L/K)$ when $K$ contains $\ell^n$th roots of unity. While the moments of a…

We generalize the Cohen-Lenstra heuristics over function fields to \'{e}tale group schemes $G$ (with the classical case of abelian groups corresponding to constant group schemes). By using the results of Ellenberg-Venkatesh-Westerland, we…

We establish the universality of the singular numbers in random matrix products over $\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbb{Q}_p)$ as the number of products approaches infinity, with a fixed $n\ge 1$. We demonstrate that, under a broad class of…

In number theory, great efforts have been undertaken to study the Cohen-Lenstra probability measure on the set of all finite abelian $p$-groups. On the other hand, group theorists have studied a probability measure on the set of all…

We prove that $\frac{\log n}{n}$ is the sharp threshold for universality of the distribution of cokernels of random matrices over $\mathbb{Z}_p$. More precisely, let $\alpha_n = \frac{c\log n}{n}$ for a constant $c>0$ and let $A(n)$ be an…
