Abstract: We investigate the linear statistics of random matrices with purely imaginary Bernoulli entries of the form Hpq=overlineHqp=pmi, that are either independently distributed or exhibit global correlations imposed by the condition sumqHpq=0. These are related to ensembles of so-called random tournaments and random regular tournaments respectively. Specifically, we construct a random walk within the space of matrices and show that the induced motion of the first k traces in a Chebyshev basis converges to a suitable Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. Coupling this with Stein's method allows us to compute the rate of convergence to a Gaussian distribution in the limit of large matrix dimension.
