Description for Log-Gases and Random Matrices (LMS-34)
Hardback. Random matrix theory, both as an application and as a theory, has evolved rapidly over the years. This title chronicles these developments, emphasizing log-gases as a physical picture. It covers topics such as beta ensembles and Jack polynomials. It develops the application and theory of Gaussian and circular ensembles of random matrix theory. Series: London Mathematical Society Monographs. Num Pages: 808 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: PBT. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 255 x 210 x 41. Weight in Grams: 1746.
Random matrix theory, both as an application and as a theory, has evolved rapidly over the past fifteen years. Log-Gases and Random Matrices gives a comprehensive account of these developments, emphasizing log-gases as a physical picture and heuristic, as well as covering topics such as beta ensembles and Jack polynomials. Peter Forrester presents an encyclopedic development of log-gases and random matrices viewed as examples of integrable or exactly solvable systems. Forrester develops not only the application and theory of Gaussian and circular ensembles of classical random matrix theory, but also of the Laguerre and Jacobi ensembles, and their beta extensions. ...

Reviews for Log-Gases and Random Matrices (LMS-34)
"Log-Gases and Random Matrices is an excellent book. It is bound to become an instant classic and the standard reference to a large body of contemporary random matrix theory. It is a well-written tour through a vast landscape. The contemporary literature is extensively referenced and incorporated in the text, and the material is presented from several perspectives. Forrester has achieved ... Read more
