In this article we study the large N asymptotics of complex moments of the absolute value of the characteristic polynomial of a N×N complex Ginibre random matrix with the characteristic polynomial evaluated at a point in the unit disk. More precisely, we calculate the large N asymptotics of E∣det(GN−z)∣γ, where GN is a N×N matrix whose entries are i.i.d and distributed as N−1/2Z, Z being a standard complex Gaussian, ℜ(γ)>−2, and ∣z∣<1. This expectation is proportional to the determinant of a complex moment matrix with a symbol which is supported in the whole complex plane and has a Fisher-Hartwig type of singularity: det(∫Cwiwj∣w−z∣γe−N∣w∣2d2w)i,j=0N−1. We study the asymptotics of this determinant using recent results due to Lee and Yang concerning the asymptotics of orthogonal polynomials with respect to the weight ∣w−z∣γe−N∣w∣2d2w along with differential identities familiar from the study of asymptotics of Toeplitz and Hankel determinants with Fisher-Hartwig singularities. To our knowledge, even in the case of one singularity, the asymptotics of the determinant of such a moment matrix whose symbol has support in a two-dimensional set and a Fisher-Hartwig singularity, have been previously unknown.Christian Webb was supported by the Academy of Finland grants 288318 and 308123.
