We focus in particular on the Gaussian Unitary Ensemble, but discuss other Hermitian ensembles as well. We employ a novel approach to calculate asymptotic formulae for the moments, enabling us to uncover subtle structure not apparent in previous approaches.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-06-22T13:26:02.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05E05", "15B52", "11M50" ], "keywords": [ "characteristic polynomials", "hermitian ensembles", "uncover subtle structure", "random matrix theory", "matrices drawn" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 26, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
