Asymptotics of Selberg-like integrals: the unitary case and Newton’s interpolation formula. (English) Zbl 1314.81177

Summary: We investigate the asymptotic behavior of the Selberg-like integral \(\frac{1}{N!}\int_{[0,1]^N}x_1^p\prod_{i<j}(x_i-x_j)^2\prod_ix_i^{a-1}(1-x_i)^{b-1}dx_i,\), as \(N \to \infty\) for different scalings of the parameters \(a\) and \(b\) with \(N\). Integrals of this type arise in the random matrix theory of electronic scattering in chaotic cavities supporting \(N\) channels in the two attached leads. Making use of Newton’s interpolation formula, we show that an asymptotic limit exists and we compute it explicitly.{

[50] The condition “N large enough” can be omitted provided that we use the notation \documentclass[12pt]{minimal}\( \begin{document}\prod_{i=a}^bf(i)=\prod_{i=b}^af(i)^{-1}\end{document} \).
[51] At the time of writing, Novaes, \(Marcel^{48}\) found an ingenious proof of the conjecture based on other principles. The challenge remains to find a combinatorial proof related to symmetric Dyck paths.
