. We review elementary properties of random matrices and discuss widely used mathematical methods for both hermitian and nonhermitian random matrix ensembles. Applications to a wide range of physics problems are summarized. This paper originally appeared as an article in the Wiley Encyclopedia of Electrical and Electronics Engineering.

Spectral properties of large random matrices with independent entries

. We consider large Wigner random matrices and related ensembles of real symmetric and Hermitian random matrices. Our results are related to the local spectral properties of these ensembles.

q-Random Matrix Ensembles

Theory of Random Matrix Ensembles have proven to be a useful tool in the study of the statistical distribution of energy or transmission levels of a wide variety of physical systems. We give an…

Random matrices and L-functions

In recent years there has been a growing interest in connections between the statistical properties of number theoretical L-functions and random matrix theory. We review the history of these…

Some results on random circulant matrices

The limiting spectral distribution of a randomcirculant matrix is shown to be complex normal, and bounds are given for the probability that a circulant sign matrix is singular.

Random polynomials, random matrices and L-functions

We show that the circular orthogonal ensemble of random matrices arises naturally from a family of random polynomials. This sheds light on the appearance of random matrix statistics in the zeros of…

Free products of large random matrices – a short review of recent developments

We review methods to calculate eigenvalue distributions of products of large random matrices. We discuss a generalization of the law of free multiplication to non-Hermitian matrices and give a couple…
