Central limit theorem for fluctuations of linear eigenvalue statistics of large random graphs

We consider the adjacency matrix $A$ of a large random graph and study fluctuations of the function $f_n(z,u)=\frac{1}{n}\sum_{k=1}^n\exp\{-uG_{kk}(z)\}$ with $G(z)=(z-iA)^{-1}$. We prove that the moments of fluctuations normalized by $n^{-1/2}$ in the limit $n\to\infty$ satisfy the Wick relations for the Gaussian random variables. This allows us to prove central limit theorem for $\hbox{Tr}G(z)$ and then extend the result on the linear eigenvalue statistics $\hbox{Tr}\phi(A)$ of any function $\phi:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ which increases, together with its first two derivatives, at infinity not faster than an exponential.Comment: 22 page

Exact results for the star lattice chiral spin liquid

We examine the star lattice Kitaev model whose ground state is a a chiral spin liquid. We fermionize the model such that the fermionic vacua are toric code states on an effective Kagome lattice. This implies that the Abelian phase of the system is inherited from the fermionic vacua and that time reversal symmetry is spontaneously broken at the level of the vacuum. In terms of these fermions we derive the Bloch-matrix Hamiltonians for the vortex free sector and its time reversed counterpart and illuminate the relationships between the sectors. The phase diagram for the model is shown to be a sphere in the space of coupling parameters around the triangles of the lattices. The abelian phase lies inside the sphere and the critical boundary between topologically distinct Abelian and non-Abelian phases lies on the surface. Outside the sphere the system is generically gapped except in the planes where the coupling parameters are zero. These cases correspond to bipartite lattice structures and the dispersion relations are similar to that of the original Kitaev honeycomb model. In a further analysis we demonstrate the three-fold non-Abelian groundstate degeneracy on a torus by explicit calculation.Comment: 7 pages, 8 figure

Eigenvalue Spacing Distribution for the Ensemble of Real Symmetric Toeplitz Matrices

Consider the ensemble of Real Symmetric Toeplitz Matrices, each entry iidrv from a fixed probability distribution p of mean 0, variance 1, and finite higher moments. The limiting spectral measure (the density of normalized eigenvalues) converges weakly to a new universal distribution with unbounded support, independent of p. This distribution's moments are almost those of the Gaussian's; the deficit may be interpreted in terms of Diophantine obstructions. With a little more work, we obtain almost sure convergence. An investigation of spacings between adjacent normalized eigenvalues looks Poissonian, and not GOE.Comment: 24 pages, 3 figure

Eigenvalue variance bounds for Wigner and covariance random matrices

This work is concerned with finite range bounds on the variance of individual eigenvalues of Wigner random matrices, in the bulk and at the edge of the spectrum, as well as for some intermediate eigenvalues. Relying on the GUE example, which needs to be investigated first, the main bounds are extended to families of Hermitian Wigner matrices by means of the Tao and Vu Four Moment Theorem and recent localization results by Erd\"os, Yau and Yin. The case of real Wigner matrices is obtained from interlacing formulas. As an application, bounds on the expected 2-Wasserstein distance between the empirical spectral measure and the semicircle law are derived. Similar results are available for random covariance matrices

Spectrum of the Product of Independent Random Gaussian Matrices

We show that the eigenvalue density of a product X=X_1 X_2 ... X_M of M independent NxN Gaussian random matrices in the large-N limit is rotationally symmetric in the complex plane and is given by a simple expression rho(z,\bar{z}) = 1/(M\pi\sigma^2} |z|^{-2+2/M} for |z|<\sigma, and is zero for |z|> \sigma. The parameter \sigma corresponds to the radius of the circular support and is related to the amplitude of the Gaussian fluctuations. This form of the eigenvalue density is highly universal. It is identical for products of Gaussian Hermitian, non-Hermitian, real or complex random matrices. It does not change even if the matrices in the product are taken from different Gaussian ensembles. We present a self-contained derivation of this result using a planar diagrammatic technique for Gaussian matrices. We also give a numerical evidence suggesting that this result applies also to matrices whose elements are independent, centered random variables with a finite variance.Comment: 16 pages, 6 figures, minor changes, some references adde

Simple matrix models for random Bergman metrics

Recently, the authors have proposed a new approach to the theory of random metrics, making an explicit link between probability measures on the space of metrics on a Kahler manifold and random matrix models. We consider simple examples of such models and compute the one and two-point functions of the metric. These geometric correlation functions correspond to new interesting types of matrix model correlators. We study a large class of examples and provide in particular a detailed study of the Wishart model.Comment: 23 pages, IOP Latex style, diastatic function Eq. (22) and contact terms in Eqs.

Number statistics for β\beta-ensembles of random matrices: applications to trapped fermions at zero temperature

Let $\mathcal{P}_{\beta}^{(V)} (N_{\cal I})$ be the probability that a $N\times N$ $\beta$-ensemble of random matrices with confining potential $V(x)$ has $N_{\cal I}$ eigenvalues inside an interval ${\cal I}=[a,b]$ of the real line. We introduce a general formalism, based on the Coulomb gas technique and the resolvent method, to compute analytically $\mathcal{P}_{\beta}^{(V)} (N_{\cal I})$ for large $N$. We show that this probability scales for large $N$ as $\mathcal{P}_{\beta}^{(V)} (N_{\cal I})\approx \exp\left(-\beta N^2 \psi^{(V)}(N_{\cal I} /N)\right)$, where $\beta$ is the Dyson index of the ensemble. The rate function $\psi^{(V)}(k_{\cal I})$, independent of $\beta$, is computed in terms of single integrals that can be easily evaluated numerically. The general formalism is then applied to the classical $\beta$-Gaussian (${\cal I}=[-L,L]$), $\beta$-Wishart (${\cal I}=[1,L]$) and $\beta$-Cauchy (${\cal I}=[-L,L]$) ensembles. Expanding the rate function around its minimum, we find that generically the number variance ${\rm Var}(N_{\cal I})$ exhibits a non-monotonic behavior as a function of the size of the interval, with a maximum that can be precisely characterized. These analytical results, corroborated by numerical simulations, provide the full counting statistics of many systems where random matrix models apply. In particular, we present results for the full counting statistics of zero temperature one-dimensional spinless fermions in a harmonic trap.Comment: 34 pages, 19 figure

Modified Beacon-Enabled IEEE 802.15.4 MAC for Lower Latency

Industrial sensing, monitoring and automation offer a lucrative application domain for networking and communications. Wired sensor networks have traditionally been used for these applications because such networks adequately meet two vital requirements, i.e., low latency and high reliability, needed for an industrial deployment. Wired sensor networks, however, are not very cost effective due to higher components’ cost. These networks also lack the flexibility needed for subsequent topological changes. Wireless sensor networks (WSN), on the other hand, are less expensive and offer high degree of flexibility. Wireless networks, therefore, can offer an attractive and viable solution for industrial sensing and automation. IEEE 802.15.4 standard defines a specification for MAC and PHY layers for shortrange, low bit-rate, and low-cost wireless networks. However, the specified system is inefficient in terms of latency and reliability and fails to meet the stringent operational requirements for industrial applications. In this paper, we propose a set of new MAC superframes with an aim to enhance both performance metrics. We then use simulation to compare the performance of our proposed systems with that of the one specified in IEEE 802.15.4 standard
