Determinantal point processes with \(J\)-Hermitian correlation kernels



Abstract: Let X be a locally compact Polish space and let m be a reference Radon measure on X. Let GammaX denote the configuration space over X, that is, the space of all locally finite subsets of X. A point process on X is a probability measure on GammaX. A point process mu is called determinantal if its correlation functions have the form k(n)(x1,ldots,xn)=det[K(xi,xj)]i,j=1,ldots,n. The function K(x,y) is called the correlation kernel of the determinantal point process mu. Assume that the space X is split into two parts: X=X1sqcupX2. A kernel K(x,y) is called J-Hermitian if it is Hermitian on X1imesX1 and X2imesX2, and K(x,y)=−overlineK(y,x) for xinX1 and yinX2. We derive a necessary and sufficient condition of existence of a determinantal point process with a J-Hermitian correlation kernel K(x,y).


A stochastic point process on a locally compact Polish space \(X\) is considered. This process is treated as a probability measure \(\mu\) on the set \(\Gamma\) of all locally finite subsets of \(X\). The point process is called determinantal if every \(n\)-correlation function of the measure \(\mu\) can be constructed as a determinant of some correlation kernel \(K(x, y)\) with respect to some measure \(m\) on \(X\). The well known Macchi-Soshnikov theorem provides a necessary and sufficient condition for a self-adjoint, locally trace-class, bounded linear operator \(K(x, y)\) to be a correlation kernel of some determinantal point process. In the present paper, it is shown that the class of operators \(K(x, y)\) preserving the validity of the Macchi-Soshnikov theorem can be expanded. The new class is the so called \(J\)-Hermitian class which is defined in terms of a partitioning of the space \(X\) into two parts and corresponding projections of the functional space \(L^2 (X, m)\).
