Distribution Functions for Random Variables for Ensembles of positive Hermitian Matrices

Abstract

Distribution functions for random variables that depend on a parameter are computed asymptotically for ensembles of positive Hermitian matrices. The inverse Fourier transform of the distribution is shown to be a Fredholm determinant of a certain operator that is an analogue of a Wiener-Hopf operator. The asymptotic formula shows that up to the terms of order $o(1)$, the distributions are Gaussian
