Interaction-correlated random matrices

We introduce a family of random matrices where correlations between matrix elements are induced via interaction-derived Boltzmann factors. Varying these yields access to different ensembles. We find a universal scaling behavior of the finite-size statistics characterized by a heavy-tailed eigenvalue distribution whose extremes are governed by the Fréchet extreme value distribution for the case corresponding to a ferromagnetic Ising transition. The introduction of a finite density of nonlocal interactions restores standard random-matrix behavior. Suitably rescaled average extremes, playing a physical role as an order parameter, can thus discriminate aspects of the interaction structure; they also yield further nonuniversal information. In particular, the link between maximum eigenvalues and order parameters offers a potential route to resolving long-standing problems in statistical physics, such as deriving the exact magnetization scaling function in the two-dimensional Ising model at criticality.

Exact finite-size scaling for the random-matrix representation of bond percolation on square lattice

We report on the exact treatment of a random-matrix representation of bond percolation model on a square lattice in two dimensions with occupation probability $p$. The percolation problem is mapped onto a random complex matrix composed of two random real-valued matrices of elements $+1$ and $-1$ with probability $p$ and $1-p$, respectively. We find that the onset of percolation transition can be detected by the emergence of power-law divergences due to the coalescence of the first two extreme eigenvalues in the thermodynamic limit. We develop a universal finite-size scaling law that fully characterizes the scaling behavior of the extreme eigenvalue's fluctuation in terms of a set of universal scaling exponents and amplitudes. We make use of the relative entropy as an index of the disparity between two distributions of the first and second-largest extreme eigenvalues, to show that its minimum underlies the scaling framework. Our study may provide an inroad for developing new methods and algorithms with diverse applications in machine learning, complex systems, and statistical physics.

Universal scaling and criticality of extremes in random matrix theory

We present a random-matrix realization of a two-dimensional percolation model with the occupation probability $p$. We find that the behavior of the model is governed by the two first extreme eigenvalues. While the second extreme eigenvalue resides on the moving edge of the semicircle bulk distribution with an additional semicircle functionality on $p$, the first extreme exhibits a disjoint isolated Gaussian statistics which is responsible for the emergence of a rich finite-size scaling and criticality. Our extensive numerical simulations along with analytical arguments unravel the power-law divergences due to the coalescence of the first two extreme eigenvalues in the thermodynamic limit. We develop a scaling law that provides a universal framework in terms of a set of scaling exponents uncovering the full finite-size scaling behavior of the extreme eigenvalue's fluctuation. Our study may provide a simple practical approach to capture the criticality in complex systems and their inverse problems with a possible extension to the interacting systems.
