Random Matrix Theory: Invariant Ensembles and Universality
Share this pagePercy Deift; Dimitri Gioev
A co-publication of the AMS and the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences at New York University
This book features a unified derivation of the mathematical theory of
the three classical types of invariant random matrix
ensembles—orthogonal, unitary, and symplectic. The authors
follow the approach of Tracy and Widom, but the exposition here
contains a substantial amount of additional material, in particular,
facts from functional analysis and the theory of Pfaffians. The main
result in the book is a proof of universality for orthogonal and
symplectic ensembles corresponding to generalized Gaussian type
weights following the authors' prior work. New, quantitative error
estimates are derived.
The book is based in part on a graduate course given by the first
author at the Courant Institute in fall 2005. Subsequently, the second
author gave a modified version of this course at the University of
Rochester in spring 2007. Anyone with some background in complex
analysis, probability theory, and linear algebra and an interest in
the mathematical foundations of random matrix theory will benefit from
studying this valuable reference.
