Universality in Complex Wishart ensembles: The 2 cut case

M. Y. Mo

Published 2008 in arXiv: Probability

ABSTRACT

We studied the universality of Wishart ensembles whose covariance matrix has 2 distinct eigenvalues. We studied the asymptotic limit when the number of both eigenvalues goes to infinity and obtained universality results. In this case, the limiting eigenvalue distribution can be supported on 1 or 2 disjoint intervals. We obtained a necessary and sufficient condition on the parameters such that the limiting distribution is supported on 2 disjoint intervals and have computed the eigenvalue density in the limit. Furthermore, by using Riemann-Hilbert analysis, we have shown that under proper rescaling of the eigenvalues, the limiting correlation kernel is given by the sine kernel and the Airy kernel in the bulk and the edge of the spectrum respectively. As a consequence, the behavior of the largest eigenvalue in this model is described by the Tracy-Widom distribution.
