We introduce a random matrix model for polynuclear growth (PNG) distributions. This model explains the GOE2 distribution and its transition from GUE, offering a new interpretation for PNG multipoint height distributions.

Area of Science:

  • Statistical Physics
  • Probability Theory
  • Mathematical Physics

Background:

  • The one-dimensional polynuclear growth (PNG) model is crucial for understanding surface growth phenomena.
  • Distribution functions, such as the GOE2 and GUE Tracy-Widom distributions, arise in the study of the PNG model with external sources.
  • Existing interpretations of GOE2 as the square of the Gaussian orthogonal ensemble (GOE) have limitations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a novel random matrix interpretation for distribution functions in the one-dimensional PNG model with external sources.
  • To offer a more comprehensive understanding of the GOE2 distribution and its relationship with the GUE Tracy-Widom distribution.
  • To establish a multimatrix model interpretation for multipoint height distributions in the multilayer PNG model.

Main Methods:

  • Developing a special case of a random matrix model with a deterministic source.
  • Analyzing the scaled largest eigenvalue distribution within this random matrix model.
  • Identifying topological similarities between noncolliding Brownian motion and the multilayer PNG model.

Main Results:

  • The GOE2 distribution is shown to be the scaled largest eigenvalue distribution of a specific random matrix model.
  • This new interpretation successfully describes the transition from the GUE Tracy-Widom distribution to the GOE2 distribution.
  • A multimatrix model interpretation is established for multipoint height distributions of the multilayer PNG model.

Conclusions:

  • The presented random matrix interpretation offers a more complete framework for understanding PNG model distributions.
  • The study bridges concepts from random matrix theory and statistical growth models.
  • This work opens avenues for further research into the connections between random matrices and stochastic processes.
