In the case n \\ge N, we rederive this result, starting from knowledge of the distribution of the sub-blocks, introducing the Schur decomposition, and integrating over all variables except the eigenvalues. The integration is done by identifying a recursive structure which reduces the dimension. This approach is inspired by an analogous approach which has been recently applied to determine the eigenvalue probability density function for random matrices A^{-1} B, where A and B are random matrices with entries standard complex normals. We relate the eigenvalue distribution of the sub-blocks to a many body quantum state, and to the one-component plasma, on the pseudosphere.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2009-09-10T12:33:13.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "82B23", "15A52" ], "keywords": [ "eigenvalue probability density function relating", "poincare disk", "derivation", "entries standard complex normals", "random matrices" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1088/1751-8113/42/38/385204", "journal": "Journal of Physics A Mathematical General", "year": 2009, "month": "Sep", "volume": 42, "number": 38, "pages": 385204 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 11, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009JPhA...42L5204F" } } }
