Particle systems with repulsion exponent \(\beta\) and random matrices. (English) Zbl 1297.15040

Summary: We consider a class of particle systems generalizing the \(\beta\) Ensembles from random matrix theory. In these new ensembles, particles experience repulsion of power \(\beta>0\) when getting close, which is the same as in the \(\beta\)-Ensembles. For distances larger than zero, the interaction is allowed to differ from those present for random eigenvalues. We show that the local bulk correlations of the \(\beta\)-Ensembles, universal in random matrix theory, also appear in these new ensembles.
