A convergence framework for Airy line ensemble via pole evolution
arXiv:2411.10586 · doi:10.1016/j.aim.2026.111028
Abstract
The Airy line ensemble is an infinite sequence of random curves. It is a natural extension of the Tracy-Widom distributions, and is expected to be the universal edge scaling limit of a range of models in random matrix theory and statistical mechanics. In this work, we provide a framework of proving convergence to the Airy line ensemble, via a characterization through the pole evolution of meromorphic functions satisfying certain stochastic differential equations. Our framework is then applied to prove the universality of the Airy line ensemble as the edge limit of various continuous time processes, including Dyson Brownian motions with general and potentials, Laguerre processes and Jacobi processes.
