Randomly incomplete spectra and intermediate statistics.

By randomly removing a fraction of levels from a given spectrum a model is constructed that describes a crossover from this spectrum to a Poisson spectrum. The formalism is applied to the transitions towards Poisson from random matrix theory (RMT) spectra and picket fence spectra. It is shown that the Fredholm determinant formalism of RMT extends naturally to describe incomplete RMT spectra.

Universality of rescaled curvature distributions.

We applied a recently proposed rescaling of curvatures of eigenvalues of parameter-dependent random matrices to experimental data from acoustic systems and to a theoretical result. It is found that the data from four different experiments, ranging from isotropic plates to anisotropic three-dimensional objects, and the theoretical result always agree with the universal curvature distribution, if only the curvatures are rescaled such that the average of their absolute values is unity.

Level density for deformations of the Gaussian orthogonal ensemble.

Formulas are derived for the average level density of deformed, or transition, Gaussian orthogonal random matrix ensembles. After some general considerations about Gaussian ensembles, we derive formulas for the average level density for (i) the transition from the Gaussian orthogonal ensemble (GOE) to the Poisson ensemble and (ii) the transition from the GOE to m GOEs.

Family of generalized random matrix ensembles.

Using the generalized maximum entropy principle based on the nonextensive q entropy, a family of random matrix ensembles is generated. This family unifies previous extensions of random matrix theory (RMT) and gives rise to an orthogonal invariant stable Lévy ensemble with new statistical properties. Some of them are analytically derived.

Effect of symmetry breaking on level curvature distributions.

We derive an exact general formalism that expresses the eigenvector and the eigenvalue dynamics as a set of coupled equations of motion in terms of the matrix elements dynamics. Combined with an appropriate model Hamiltonian, these equations are used to investigate the effect of the presence of a discrete symmetry in the level curvature distribution. An explanation of the unexpected behavior of the data regarding frequencies of acoustic vibrations of quartz block is provided.
