Spectral gap of doubly stochastic matrices generated from equidistributed unitary matrices
نویسنده
چکیده
To a unitary matrix U we associate a doubly stochastic matrix M by taking the squared modulus of each element of U . To study the connection between onset of quantum chaos on graphs and ergodicity of the underlying Markov chain, specified by M , we study the limiting distribution of the spectral gap of M when U is taken from the circular unitary ensemble and the dimension N of U is taken to infinity. We prove that the limiting distribution is degenerate: the gap tends to its maximal value 1. The shape of the gap distribution for finite N is also discussed.

Spectral gap of doubly stochastic matrices generated from CUE
To a unitary matrix U we associate a doubly stochastic matrix M by taking the modulus squared of each element of U. To study the connection between onset of quantum chaos on graphs and ergodicity of the underlying Markov chain, specified by M, we study the limiting distribution of the spectral gap of M when U is taken from the Circular Unitary Ensemble and the dimension N of U is taken to infin...
متن کاملClassical 1D maps, quantum graphs and ensembles of unitary matrices
We study a certain class of classical one-dimensional piecewise linear maps. For these systems we introduce an infinite family of Markov partitions in equal cells. The symbolic dynamics generated by these systems is described by bi-stochastic (doubly stochastic) matrices. We analyse the structure of graphs generated from the corresponding symbolic dynamics. We demonstrate that the spectra of qu...

متن کاملDouble-null operators and the investigation of Birkhoff's theorem on discrete lp spaces
Doubly stochastic matrices play a fundamental role in the theory of majorization. Birkhoff's theorem explains the relation between $ntimes n$ doubly stochastic matrices and permutations. In this paper, we first introduce double-null operators and we will find some important properties of them. Then with the help of double-null operators, we investigate Birkhoff's theorem for descreate $l^p$ sp...
متن کاملec 2 00 7 Defect of a unitary matrix
We analyze properties of a map f sending a unitary matrix U of size N into a doubly stochastic matrix B = f (U) defined by Bi,j = |Ui,j| 2. For any U we define its defect, determined by the dimension of the image Df (TU U) of the space TU U tangent to the manifold of unitary matrices U at U under the tangent map Df corresponding to f. The defect, equal to zero for a generic unitary matrix, give...
