A note on quantum chaology and gamma approximations to eigenvalue spacings for infinite random matrices
Quantum counterparts of certain simple classical systems can exhibit chaotic
behaviour through the statistics of their energy levels and the irregular
spectra of chaotic systems are modelled by eigenvalues of infinite random
matrices. We use known bounds on the distribution function for eigenvalue
spacings for the Gaussian orthogonal ensemble (GOE) of infinite random real
symmetric matrices and show that gamma distributions, which have an important
uniqueness property, can yield an approximation to the GOE distribution. That
has the advantage that then both chaotic and non chaotic cases fit in the
information geometric framework of the manifold of gamma distributions, which
has been the subject of recent work on neighbourhoods of randomness for general
stochastic systems. Additionally, gamma distributions give approximations, to
eigenvalue spacings for the Gaussian unitary ensemble (GUE) of infinite random
hermitian matrices and for the Gaussian symplectic ensemble (GSE) of infinite
random hermitian matrices with real quaternionic elements, except near the
origin. Gamma distributions do not precisely model the various analytic systems
discussed here, but some features may be useful in studies of qualitative
generic properties in applications to data from real systems which manifestly
seem to exhibit behaviour reminiscent of near-random processes.Comment: 9 pages, 5 figures, 2 tables, 27 references. Updates version 1 with

An inhomogeneous stochastic rate process for evolution from states in an information geometric neighbourhood of uniform fitness
This study elaborates some examples of a simple evolutionary stochastic rate
process where the population rate of change depends on the distribution of
properties--so different cohorts change at different rates. We investigate the
effect on the evolution arising from parametrized perturbations of uniformity
for the initial inhomogeneity. The information geometric neighbourhood system
yields also solutions for a wide range of other initial inhomogeneity
distributions, including approximations to truncated Gaussians of arbitrarily
small variance and distributions with pronounced extreme values. It is found
that, under quite considerable alterations in the shape and variance of the
initial distribution of inhomogeneity in unfitness, the decline of the mean
does change markedly with the variation in starting conditions, but the net
population evolution seems surprisingly stable.Comment: 9 pages, 11 figures, 9 reference
Some recent work in Frechet geometry
Some recent work in Frechet geometry is briefly reviewed. In particular an
earlier result on the structure of second tangent bundles in the finite
dimensional case was extended to infinite dimensional Banach manifolds and
Frechet manifolds that could be represented as projective limits of Banach
manifolds. This led to further results concerning the characterization of
second tangent bundles and differential equations in the more general Frechet
structure needed for applications. A summary is given of recent results on
hypercyclicity of operators on Frechet spaces.Comment: 14 pages 48 reference
On the entropy flows to disorder
Gamma distributions, which contain the exponential as a special case, have a
distinguished place in the representation of near-Poisson randomness for
statistical processes; typically, they represent distributions of spacings
between events or voids among objects. Here we look at the properties of the
Shannon entropy function and calculate its corresponding flow curves. We
consider univariate and bivariate gamma, as well as Weibull distributions which
also include exponential distributions.Comment: Enlarged version of original. 11 pages, 6 figures, 15 reference
Fuzzy Topology, Quantization and Gauge Invariance
Dodson-Zeeman fuzzy topology considered as the possible mathematical
framework of quantum geometric formalism. In such formalism the states of
massive particle m correspond to elements of fuzzy manifold called fuzzy
points. Due to their weak (partial) ordering, m space coordinate x acquires
principal uncertainty dx. It's shown that m evolution with minimal number of
additional assumptions obeys to schroedinger and dirac formalisms in
norelativistic and relativistic cases correspondingly. It's argued that
particle's interactions on such fuzzy manifold should be gauge invariant.Comment: 12 pages, Talk given on 'Geometry and Field Theory' conference,
