A t by n random matrix A is formed by sampling n independent random column vectors, each containing t components. The random Gram matrix of size n, G_n, contains the dot products between all pairs of column vectors in the randomly generated…

We investigate determinants of random unitary pencils (with scalar or matrix coefficients), which generalize the characteristic polynomial of a single unitary matrix. In particular we examine moments of such determinants, obtained by…

There are several methods to treat ensembles of random matrices in symmetric spaces, circular matrices, chiral matrices and others. Orthogonal polynomials and the supersymmetry method are particular powerful techniques. Here, we present a…

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…

It is shown that the correlation functions of the random variables $\det(\lambda - X)$, in which $X$ is a real symmetric $ N\times N$ random matrix, exhibit universal local statistics in the large $N$ limit. The derivation relies on an…

We establish a new connection between moments of $n \times n$ random matrices $X_n$ and hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials. Specifically, we consider moments $\mathbb{E}\mathrm{Tr} X_n^{-s}$ as a function of the complex variable $s \in…

We argue that the freezing transition scenario, previously explored in the statistical mechanics of 1/f-noise random energy models, also determines the value distribution of the maximum of the modulus of the characteristic polynomials of…

We investigate the average characteristic polynomial $\mathbb E\big[\prod_{i=1}^N(z-x_i)\big] $ where the $x_i$'s are real random variables which form a determinantal point process associated to a bounded projection operator. For a subclass…

A combinatorial interpretation is provided for the moments of characteristic polynomials of random unitary matrices. This leads to a rather unexpected consequence of the Keating and Snaith conjecture: the moments of $\mid\xi(1/2+it)\mid$…

We introduce a family of random matrices where correlations between matrix elements are induced via interaction-derived Boltzmann factors. Varying these yields access to different ensembles. We find a universal scaling behavior of the…

We conjecture results about the moments of mixed derivatives of the Riemann zeta function, evaluated at the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function. We do this in two different ways, both giving us the same conjecture. In the first,…
