We prove that in the regime $pN \\gg 1$ these matrices exhibit bulk universality in the sense that both the averaged $n$-point correlation functions and distribution of a single eigenvalue gap coincide with those of the GOE. Our methods extend to a class of random matrices which includes sparse ensembles whose entries have different variances.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-04-20T19:43:45.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "sparse random matrices", "bulk universality", "single eigenvalue gap coincide", "point correlation functions", "methods extend" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 20, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
