Tridiagonal realization of the antisymmetric Gaussian \(\beta\)-ensemble



Abstract: The Householder reduction of a member of the anti-symmetric Gaussian unitary ensemble gives an anti-symmetric tridiagonal matrix with all independent elements. The random variables permit the introduction of a positive parameter , and the eigenvalue probability density function of the corresponding random matrices can be computed explicitly, as can the distribution of qi, the first components of the eigenvectors. Three proofs are given. One involves an inductive construction based on bordering of a family of random matrices which are shown to have the same distributions as the anti-symmetric tridiagonal matrices. This proof uses the Dixon-Anderson integral from Selberg integral theory. A second proof involves the explicit computation of the Jacobian for the change of variables between real anti-symmetric tridiagonal matrices, its eigenvalues and qi. The third proof maps matrices from the anti-symmetric Gaussian -ensemble to those realizing particular examples of the Laguerre -ensemble. In addition to these proofs, we note some simple properties of the shooting eigenvector and associated Pr"ufer phases of the random matrices.
