A Gelfand–Tsetlin scheme of depth $$N$$N is a triangular array with $$m$$m integers at level $$m$$m, $$m=1,\ldots ,N$$m=1,…,N, subject to certain interlacing constraints. We study the ensemble of uniformly random Gelfand–Tsetlin schemes with arbitrary fixed $$N$$Nth row. We obtain an explicit double contour integral expression for the determinantal correlation kernel of this ensemble (and also of its $$q$$q-deformation). This provides new tools for asymptotic analysis of uniformly random… Expand
