Extremal spacings between eigenphases of random unitary matrices and their tensor products
Extremal spacings between eigenvalues of random unitary matrices of size N
pertaining to circular ensembles are investigated. Explicit probability
distributions for the minimal spacing for various ensembles are derived for N =
4. We study ensembles of tensor product of k random unitary matrices of size n
which describe independent evolution of a composite quantum system consisting
of k subsystems. In the asymptotic case, as the total dimension N = n^k becomes
large, the nearest neighbor distribution P(s) becomes Poissonian, but
statistics of extreme spacings P(s_min) and P(s_max) reveal certain deviations
from the Poissonian behavior
