Determinantal point process

In mathematics, a determinantal point process is a stochastic point process, the probability distribution of which is characterized as a determinant of some function. Such processes arise as important tools in random matrix theory, combinatorics, physics,[1] and wireless network modeling.[2][3][4]

Definition

Let be a locally compact Polish space and be a Radon measure on . Also, consider a measurable function .

We say that is a determinantal point process on with kernel if it is a simple point process on with a joint intensity or correlation function (which is the density of its factorial moment measure) given by

for every n ≥ 1 and x1, ..., xn ∈ Λ.[5]

Properties

Existence

The following two conditions are necessary and sufficient for the existence of a determinantal random point process with intensities ρk.

  • Symmetry: ρk is invariant under action of the symmetric group Sk. Thus:
  • Positivity: For any N, and any collection of measurable, bounded functions , k = 1, ..., N with compact support:
    If
    Then [6]

Uniqueness

A sufficient condition for the uniqueness of a determinantal random process with joint intensities ρk is

for every bounded Borel A ⊆ Λ.[6]

Examples

Gaussian unitary ensemble

The eigenvalues of a random m × m Hermitian matrix drawn from the Gaussian unitary ensemble (GUE) form a determinantal point process on with kernel

where is the th oscillator wave function defined by

and is the th Hermite polynomial. [7]

Poissonized Plancherel measure

The poissonized Plancherel measure on partitions of integers (and therefore on Young diagrams) plays an important role in the study of the longest increasing subsequence of a random permutation. The point process corresponding to a random Young diagram, expressed in modified Frobenius coordinates, is a determinantal point process on + 12 with the discrete Bessel kernel, given by:

where

For J the Bessel function of the first kind, and θ the mean used in poissonization.[8]

This serves as an example of a well-defined determinantal point process with non-Hermitian kernel (although its restriction to the positive and negative semi-axis is Hermitian).[6]

Uniform spanning trees

Let G be a finite, undirected, connected graph, with edge set E. Define Ie:E  2(E) as follows: first choose some arbitrary set of orientations for the edges E, and for each resulting, oriented edge e, define Ie to be the projection of a unit flow along e onto the subspace of 2(E) spanned by star flows.[9] Then the uniformly random spanning tree of G is a determinantal point process on E, with kernel

.[5]
