A spectral average which generalises the local spacing distribution of the eigenvalues of random $ N\times N $ hermitian matrices in the bulk of their spectrum as $ N\to\infty $ is known to be a $\tau$-function of the fifth Painlev\'e…
A feature of certain ensembles of random matrices is that the corresponding measure is invariant under conjugation by unitary matrices. Study of such ensembles realised by matrices with Gaussian entries leads to statistical quantities…
The gap probability generating function has as its coefficients the probability of an interval containing exactly $k$ eigenvalues. For scaled random matrices with orthogonal symmetry, and the interval at the hard or soft spectrum edge, the…
With $<\cdot>$ denoting an average with respect to the eigenvalue PDF for the Laguerre unitary ensemble, the object of our study is $ \tilde{E}_N(I;a,\mu) := < \prod_{l=1}^N \chi_{(0,\infty)\backslash I}^{(l)} (\lambda - \lambda_l)^\mu>$…

We describe a new universality class for unitary invariant random matrix ensembles. It arises in the double scaling limit of ensembles of random $n \times n$ Hermitian matrices $Z_{n,N}^{-1} |\det M|^{2\alpha} e^{-N \Tr V(M)} dM$ with…

The $\tau$-function theory of Painlev\'e systems is used to derive recurrences in the rank $n$ of certain random matrix averages over U(n). These recurrences involve auxilary quantities which satisfy discrete Painlev\'e equations. The…

We study the Fredholm determinant of an integrable operator acting on the interval $(0,s)$ whose kernel is constructed out of a hierarchy of higher order analogues to the Painlev\'{e} III equation. This Fredholm determinant describes the…
Starting from the diffusion equation at beta random matrix hard edge obtained by Ramirez and Rider (2008), we study the question of its relation with Lax pairs for Painleve III. The results are in many respects similar to the ones found for…
The scaled distribution of the smallest eigenvalue in the Laguerre orthogonal and symplectic ensembles is evaluated in terms of a Painlev\'e V transcendent. This same Painlev\'e V transcendent is known from the work of Tracy and Widom,…
We consider the singular linear statistic of the Laguerre unitary ensemble consisting of the sum of the reciprocal of the eigenvalues. It is observed that the exponential generating function for this statistic can be written as a Toeplitz…
We consider the Gaussian unitary ensemble perturbed by a Fisher-Hartwig singularity simultaneously of both root type and jump type. In the critical regime where the singularity approaches the soft edge, namely, the edge of the support of…
In this paper we review and compare the numerical evaluation of those probability distributions in random matrix theory that are analytically represented in terms of Painlev\'e transcendents or Fredholm determinants. Concrete examples for…

In this article, we study a special class of Jimbo-Miwa-Mori-Sato isomonodromy equations, which can be seen as a higher-dimensional generalization of Painlev\'e VI. We first construct its convergent $n\times n$ matrix series solutions…
In this paper, we study a certain linear statistics of the unitary Laguerre ensembles, motivated in part by an integrable quantum field theory at finite temperature. It transpires that this is equivalent to the characterization of a…
