Random unistochastic matrices

An ensemble of random unistochastic (orthostochastic) matrices is defined by taking squared moduli of elements of random unitary (orthogonal) matrices distributed according to the Haar measure on U(N) (or O(N), respectively). An ensemble of symmetric unistochastic matrices is obtained with use of unitary symmetric matrices pertaining to the circular orthogonal ensemble. We study the distribution of complex eigenvalues of bistochastic, unistochastic and ortostochastic matrices in the complex plane. We compute averages (entropy, traces) over the ensembles of unistochastic matrices and present inequalities concerning the entropies of products of bistochastic matrices.

S-matrix poles for chaotic quantum systems as eigenvalues of complex symmetric random matrices: from isolated to overlapping resonances

We study complex eigenvalues of large $N\times N$ symmetric random matrices of the form ${\cal H}=\hat{H}-i\hatΓ$, where both $\hat{H}$ and $\hatΓ$ are real symmetric, $\hat{H}$ is random Gaussian and $\hatΓ$ is such that $NTr \hatΓ^2_2\sim Tr \hat{H}_1^2$ when $N\to \infty$. When $\hatΓ\ge 0$ the model can be used to describe the universal statistics of S-matrix poles (resonances) in the complex energy plane. We derive the ensuing distribution of the resonance widths which generalizes the well-known $χ^2$ distribution to the case of overlapping resonances. We also consider a different class of "almost real" matrices when $\hatΓ$ is random and uncorrelated with $\hat{H}$.

Statistics of S-matrix poles for chaotic systems with broken time reversal invariance: a conjecture

In the framework of a random matrix description of chaotic quantum scattering the positions of $S-$matrix poles are given by complex eigenvalues $Z_i$ of an effective non-Hermitian random-matrix Hamiltonian. We put forward a conjecture on statistics of $Z_i$ for systems with broken time-reversal invariance and verify that it allows to reproduce statistical characteristics of Wigner time delays known from independent calculations. We analyze the ensuing two-point statistical measures as e.g. spectral form factor and the number variance. In addition we find the density of complex eigenvalues of real asymmetric matrices generalizing the recent result by Efetov\cite{Efnh}.

Almost-Hermitian Random Matrices: Crossover from Wigner-Dyson to Ginibre eigenvalue statistics

By using the method of orthogonal polynomials we analyze the statistical properties of complex eigenvalues of random matrices describing a crossover from Hermitian matrices characterized by the Wigner- Dyson statistics of real eigenvalues to strongly non-Hermitian ones whose complex eigenvalues were studied by Ginibre. Two-point statistical measures (as e.g. spectral form factor, number variance and small distance behavior of the nearest neighbor distance distribution $p(s)$) are studied in more detail. In particular, we found that the latter function may exhibit unusual behavior $p(s)\propto s^{5/2}$ for some parameter values.

Statistics of resonance poles, phase shifts and time delays in quantum chaotic scattering for systems with broken time reversal invariance

Assuming the validity of random matrices for describing the statistics of a closed chaotic quantum system, we study analytically some statistical properties of the S-matrix characterizing scattering in its open counterpart. In the first part of the paper we attempt to expose systematically ideas underlying the so-called stochastic (Heidelberg) approach to chaotic quantum scattering. Then we concentrate on systems with broken time-reversal invariance coupled to continua via M open channels. By using the supersymmetry method we derive: (i) an explicit expression for the density of S-matrix poles (resonances) in the complex energy plane (ii) an explicit expression for the parametric correlation function of densities of eigenphases of the S-matrix. We use it to find the distribution of derivatives of these eigenphases with respect to the energy ("partial delay times" ) as well as with respect to an arbitrary external parameter.

Parametric Correlations of Scattering Phase Shifts and Fluctuations of Delay Times in Few-Channel Chaotic Scattering

By using the supersymmetry method we derive an explicit expression for the parametric correlation function of densities of eigenphases $θ_a$ of the S-matrix in a chaotic quantum system with broken time-reversal symmetry coupled to continua via M equivalent open channels;$\,\,a=1,..,M$ .We use it to find the distribution of derivatives of these eigenphases over the energy ("phaseshift times") as well as over an arbitrary external parameter.We also find the parametric correlations of Wigner-Smith delay times

Statistics of S-matrix poles in Few-Channel Chaotic Scattering: Crossover from Isolated to Overlapping Resonances

We derive the explicit expression for the distribution of resonance widths in a chaotic quantum system coupled to continua via M equivalent open channels. It describes a crossover from the $χ^2$ distribution (regime of isolated resonances) to a broad power-like distribution typical for the regime of overlapping resonances. The first moment is found to reproduce exactly the Moldauer-Simonius relation between the mean resonance width and the transmission coefficient. This fact may serve as another manifestation of equivalence between the spectral and the ensemble averaging.

Time Delay Correlations in Chaotic Scattering: Random Matrix Approach

We study the correlations of time delays in a model of chaotic resonance scattering based on the random matrix approach. Analytical formulae which are valid for arbitrary number of open channels and arbitrary coupling strength between resonances and channels are obtained by the supersymmetry method. We demonstrate that the time delay correlation function, though being not a Lorentzian, is characterized, similar to that of the scattering matrix, by the gap between the cloud of complex poles of the $S$-matrix and the real energy axis.

On the TAP approach to the spherical p-spin SG model

In this letter we analyze the TAP approach to the spherical $p$-spin spin glass model in zero external field. The TAP free energy is derived by summing up all the relevant diagrams for $N\to\infty$ of a diagrammatic expansion of the free energy. We find that if the multiplicity of the TAP solutions is taken into account, then there is a first order transition in the order parameter at the critical temperature $T_{\rm c}$ higher than that predicted by the replica solution $T_{\rm RSB}$, but in agreement with the results of dynamics. The transition is of ``geometrical'' nature since the new state has larger free energy but occupies the largest volume in phase space. The transition predicted by the replica calculation is also of ``geometrical'' nature since it corresponds to the states with smallest free energy with positive complexity.
