Abstract

For a β\beta ensemble on Σ(N)={(x1,,xN)RNx1xN}\Sigma^{(N)}=\{(x_1,\ldots,x_N)\mathbb R^N|x_1\le\cdots\le x_N\} with real analytic potential and general β>0\beta>0, under the assumption that its equilibrium measure is supported on qq intervals where q>1q>1, we prove the following rigidity property for its particles. First, in the bulk of the spectrum, with overwhelming probability, the distance between a particle and its classical position is of order O(N1+ϵ)O(N^{-1+\epsilon}). Second, if kk is close to 1 or close to NN, i.e., near the extreme edges of the spectrum, then with overwhelming probability, the distance between the kk-th largest particle and its classical position is of order O(N23+ϵmin(k,N+1k)13)O(N^{-\frac{2}{3}+\epsilon}\min(k,N+1-k)^{-\frac{1}{3}}). Here ϵ>0\epsilon>0 is an arbitrarily small constant. Our main idea is to decompose the multi-cut β\beta ensemble as a product of probability measures on spaces with lower dimensions and show that each of these measures is very close to a β\beta ensemble in one-cut regime for which the rigidity of particles is known.
