Universality of level correlation function of sparse random matrices

From MaRDI portal





This paper is concerned with the eigenvalue distribution of random matrices of size tending to infinity which are sparse in the sense that the expected number of non-zero elements per row is a finite constant \(p\). A key hypothesis was formulated by \textit{F. J. Dyson} [Commun. Math. Phys. 19, 235--250 (1970; Zbl 0221.62019)] that the eigenvalue pair correlation function depends only on matrix symmetry, not on the distribution of individual entries. The authors make calculations using supersymmetry and a generalization of the Hubbard-Stratonovich transformation. There is a delocalization transition similar to that in the Anderson model on the Bethe lattice, and in the delocalized phase there is a universal (Dyson) form.
