We will focus on the critical regime of the Baik-Ben Arous-P\\'ech\\'e (BBP) phase transition and establish the distribution of the eigenvectors associated with the leading eigenvalues. The distribution is given in terms of a determinantal point process with extended Airy kernel. Our result can be regarded as an eigenvector counterpart of the BBP eigenvalue phase transition (arXiv:math/0403022). The derivation of the distribution makes use of the recently re-discovered eigenvector-eigenvalue identity, together with the determinantal point process representation of the GUE minor process with external source.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-09-28T08:44:16.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60B20", "15A18" ], "keywords": [ "critical regime", "bbp transition", "eigenvector distribution", "determinantal point process representation", "external source" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 52, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
