On Eigenvalues of the sum of two random projections
We study the behavior of eigenvalues of matrix P_N + Q_N where P_N and Q_N
are two N -by-N random orthogonal projections. We relate the joint eigenvalue
distribution of this matrix to the Jacobi matrix ensemble and establish the
universal behavior of eigenvalues for large N. The limiting local behavior of
eigenvalues is governed by the sine kernel in the bulk and by either the Bessel
or the Airy kernel at the edge depending on parameters. We also study an
exceptional case when the local behavior of eigenvalues of P_N + Q_N is not
universal in the usual sense.Comment: 14 page
Noncolliding Squared Bessel Processes
We consider a particle system of the squared Bessel processes with index conditioned never to collide with each other, in which if
the origin is assumed to be reflecting. When the number of particles is finite,
we prove for any fixed initial configuration that this noncolliding diffusion
process is determinantal in the sense that any multitime correlation function
is given by a determinant with a continuous kernel called the correlation
kernel. When the number of particles is infinite, we give sufficient conditions
for initial configurations so that the system is well defined. There the
process with an infinite number of particles is determinantal and the
correlation kernel is expressed using an entire function represented by the
Weierstrass canonical product, whose zeros on the positive part of the real
axis are given by the particle-positions in the initial configuration. From the
class of infinite-particle initial configurations satisfying our conditions, we
report one example in detail, which is a fixed configuration such that every
point of the square of positive zero of the Bessel function is
occupied by one particle. The process starting from this initial configuration
shows a relaxation phenomenon converging to the stationary process, which is
determinantal with the extended Bessel kernel, in the long-term limit.Comment: v3: LaTeX2e, 26 pages, no figure, corrections made for publication in

Determinantal process starting from an orthogonal symmetry is a Pfaffian process
When the number of particles is finite, the noncolliding Brownian motion
(BM) and the noncolliding squared Bessel process with index
(BESQ) are determinantal processes for arbitrary fixed initial
configurations. In the present paper we prove that, if initial configurations
are distributed with orthogonal symmetry, they are Pfaffian processes in the
sense that any multitime correlation functions are expressed by Pfaffians. The
skew-symmetric matrix-valued correlation kernels of the Pfaffians
processes are explicitly obtained by the equivalence between the noncolliding
BM and an appropriate dilatation of a time reversal of the temporally
inhomogeneous version of noncolliding BM with finite duration in which all
particles start from the origin, , and by the equivalence between
the noncolliding BESQ and that of the noncolliding squared
generalized meander starting from .Comment: v2: AMS-LaTeX, 17 pages, no figure, corrections made for publication
