The coupling of a single state to the Fermi sea is considered. This state is coupled to a hierarchy of states corresponding to one or several particle-hole excitations. We have considered various couplings between two successive generations of this hierarchy and determined under which conditions this coupling can lead to Wigner-Dyson correlations. We have found that the cross-over from a Poisson to a Wigner distribution is characterized not only by the ratio $V/\\Delta_c$, but also by the ratio $\\Delta_c/\\delta$. $V$ is the typical interaction matrix element, $\\delta$ is the energy distance between {\\it many-body} states and $\\Delta_c$ is the distance between many-body states coupled by the interaction.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1998-10-17T14:56:27.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "many-body spectral statistics", "interacting fermions", "typical interaction matrix element", "many-body spectrum", "single state" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 10, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
