Abstract: We consider the ensemble of nimesn Wigner hermitian matrices H=(hellk)1leqell,kleqn that generalize the Gaussian unitary ensemble (GUE). The matrix elements are given by hellk=n−1/2(xellk+sqrt−1yellk), where xellk,yellk for 1leqell<kleqn are i.i.d. random variables with mean zero and variance 1/2, yellell=0 and xellell have mean zero and variance 1. We assume the distribution of xellk,yellk to have subexponential decay. In a recent paper, four of the authors recently established that the gap distribution and averaged k-point correlation of these matrices were emph{universal} (and in particular, agreed with those for GUE) assuming additional regularity hypotheses on the xellk,yellk. In another recent paper, the other two authors, using a different method, established the same conclusion assuming instead some moment and support conditions on the xellk,yellk. In this short note we observe that the arguments of these two papers can be combined to establish universality of the gap distribution and averaged k-point correlations for all Wigner matrices (with subexponentially decaying entries), with no extra assumptions.
