Abstract

Equip the symmetric group Sn\mathfrak{S}_n with the Ewens distribution. We study the eigenvalue point process of the permutation representation of Sn\mathfrak{S}_n on kk-tuples of distinct integers chosen from the set {1,2,...,n}\{1,2,...,n\}. Taking nn \to \infty, we find the limiting point process in the microscopic regime, i.e. when the eigenvalue point process is viewed at the scale of the mean eigenvalue spacing. A formula for the limiting eigenvalue gap probability in an interval is also given. In certain cases, a power series representation exists and a combinatorial procedure is given for computing the coefficients.
