Random Hermitian matrices in an external field

  • 1. Ecole Normale Superieure, 75 - Paris (France). Lab. de Physique Theorique

Description

In this article, a model of random Hermitian matrices is considered, in which the measure exp (-S) contains a general U(N)-invariant potential and an external source term: S=N tr(V(M)+MA). The generalization of known determinant formulae leads to compact expressions for the correlation functions of the energy levels. These expressions, exact at finite N, are potentially useful for asymptotic analysis. (orig.)
