Quantum conductance problems and the Jacobi ensemble

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: In one dimensional transport problems the scattering matrix S is decomposed into a block structure corresponding to reflection and transmission matrices at the two ends. For S a random unitary matrix, the singular value probability distribution function of these blocks is calculated. The same is done when S is constrained to be symmetric, or to be self dual quaternion real, or when S has real elements, or has real quaternion elements. Three methods are used: metric forms; a variant of the Ingham-Seigel matrix integral; and a theorem specifying the Jacobi random matrix ensemble in terms of Wishart distributed matrices.
