Distribution of Schmidt-like eigenvalues for Gaussian Ensembles of the
Random Matrix Theory    [PDF]

M. P. Pato, G. Oshanin

We analyze the form of the probability distribution function P_{n}^{(\beta)}(w) of the Schmidt-like random variable w = x_1^2/(\sum_{j=1}^n x^{2}_j/n), where x_j are the eigenvalues of a given n \times n \beta-Gaussian random matrix, \beta being the Dyson symmetry index. This variable, by definition, can be considered as a measure of how any individual eigenvalue deviates from the arithmetic mean value of all eigenvalues of a given random matrix, and its distribution is calculated with respect to the ensemble of such \beta-Gaussian random matrices. We show that in the asymptotic limit n \to \infty and for arbitrary \beta the distribution P_{n}^{(\beta)}(w) converges to the Mar\v{c}enko-Pastur form, i.e., is defined as P_{n}^{(\beta)}(w) \sim \sqrt{(4 - w)/w} for w \in [0,4] and equals zero outside of the support. Furthermore, for Gaussian unitary (\beta = 2) ensembles we present exact explicit expressions for P_{n}^{(\beta=2)}(w) which are valid for arbitrary n and analyze their behavior.
