Abstract

Based on the exact relationship to random matrix theory, we present an alternative method of evaluating the probability distribution of the k-th smallest Dirac eigenvalue in the epsilon-regime of QCD and QCD-like theories. By utilizing the Nystrom-type discretization of Fredholm determinants and Pfaffians, practical trouble of evaluating multiple integrations is circumvented and technical restrictions on the parities of the number of flavors and of the topological charge present in our previous treatment for beta=1 and 4 cases [Phys. Rev. D 63, 045012 (2001)] are partly lifted. This method is also applied to the distributions of spacings between k-th nearest-neighboring levels in the mobility edges of Anderson Hamiltonian and Dirac operator in high-temperature QCD.
