Abstract

We consider the discrete defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation in its integrable version, which is called defocusing Ablowitz-Ladik lattice. We consider periodic boundary conditions with period and initial data sample according to the Generalized Gibbs ensemble. In this setting, the Lax matrix of the Ablowitz-Ladik lattice is a random CMV-periodic matrix and it is related to the Killip-Nenciu Circular -ensemble at high-temperature. We obtain the generalized free energy of the Ablowitz-Ladik lattice and the density of states of the random Lax matrix by establishing a mapping to the one-dimensional log-gas. For the Gibbs measure related to the Hamiltonian of the Ablowitz-Ladik flow, we obtain the density of states via a particular solution of the double-confluent Heun equation.
