| | | | To qualify as a vector space, a set \(V\) and its associated operations of addition (\(+\)) and multiplication/scaling (\(\cdot\)) must adhere to the below: Associativity # \begin{equation} \mathbf{u}+(\mathbf{v}+\mathbf{w}) = (\mathbf{u} + \mathbf{v}) + \mathbf{w} \end{equation} Commutivity # \begin{equation} \mathbf{u} + \mathbf{v} = \mathbf{v} + \mathbf{u} \end{equation} Identity of Addition # There exists and element \(\mathbf{0}\,\in\,V\), called the zero vector, such that \(\mathbf{v} + \mathbf{0} ... | |

| | | | The logarithmic potential is a classical object of potential theory intimately connected with the two dimensional Laplacian. It appears also in free probability theory via the free entropy, and in partial differential equations e.g. Patlak-Keller-Segel models. This post concerns only it usage for the spectra of non Hermitian random matrices. Let \( {\mathcal{P}(\mathbb{C})} \) be the set of probability measures... | |

| | | | The ``probabilistic method'' is the art of applying probabilistic thinking to non-probabilistic problems. Applications of the probabilistic method often feel like magic. Here is my favorite example: Theorem (Erdös, 1965). Call a set $latex {X}&fg=000000$ sum-free if for all $latex {a, b \in X}&fg=000000$, we have $latex {a + b \not\in X}&fg=000000$. For any finite... | |
