This study compares eigenvalue densities of Wigner-Lévy matrices and maximally random free random Lévy matrices. Results show spectral stability and agreement between numerical and analytical findings for random matrix theory.

Area of Science:

  • Mathematics
  • Physics
  • Statistics

Background:

  • Random matrix theory (RMT) is crucial for understanding complex systems.
  • Wigner matrices and maximally random matrices represent distinct RMT ensembles.
  • Lévy distributions and free probability calculus offer advanced analytical tools.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare the eigenvalue densities of Wigner-Lévy matrices and free random Lévy (FRL) matrices.
  • To investigate spectral stability and tail behavior of these matrix ensembles.
  • To explore the relationship between maximal randomness and matrix central limit theorems.

Main Methods:

  • Computation of eigenvalue densities using corrected Bouchaud-Cizeau method for Wigner-Lévy matrices.
  • Adaptation of free probability calculus for eigenvalue densities of FRL matrices.

  • Numerical sampling of eigenvalue spectra for matrices of dimensions N=100 and N=400.
  • Main Results:

    • Both Wigner-Lévy and FRL matrices exhibit spectral stability under matrix addition.
    • Excellent agreement between numerical and analytical results for eigenvalue densities observed.
    • Rescaled spectra of both ensembles demonstrate identical tail behavior, though eigenvalue correlations differ.

    Conclusions:

    • FRL matrices represent a maximally random ensemble, maximizing Shannon's entropy.
    • Matrix central limit theorems connect Wigner-Lévy matrices to FRL spectra, realizing maximal randomness.
    • The study provides insights into the spectral properties and relationships within different random matrix ensembles.
