Eugene Wigner - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Wigner." Finally, someone broke the stalemate by pointing out that Wigner was feeling at a loss because he didn't know the man's name. Wigner was a giant of atomic bomb production as well. Wigner always thought of his work on the atomic bomb as essentially defensive, and he would later become a major figure in the field of civil defense. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Eugene_Wigner

Wigner semicircle distribution - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Wigner semicircle distribution, named after the physicist normal, so also, the free cumulants of degree more than 2 of a probability distribution are all zero if and only if the distribution is Wigner's semicircle distribution. In free probability theory, the role of Wigner's semicircle distribution is analogous to that of the normal distribution in classical probability theory. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Wigner_semicircle_law

Probability_distribution :: links and related That discrete distributions do not admit such a density is unsurprising, but there are continuous distributions like the devil's staircase that also do not admit a density. The Erlang distribution, which is a special case of the gamma distribution with integral shape parameter, developed to predict waiting times in queuing systems. Every random variable gives rise to a probability distribution, and this distribution contains most of the important information about the variable. computers.mysic.org /Probability_distribution

hist.html Wigner advocated the work of Wishart which was giving the joint distribution of the eigenvalues to confirm his finding. In 1955, Wigner realized that the statistical distribution of the resonances energies was given by the eigenvalues of a random matrix sharing the same properties as the Hamiltonian of the nucleus. In the end of the sixties, Mehta and Gaudin could compute analytically the level spacing distribution and showed that the Wigner surmise was accurate to few persent if compared with the exact result. www.math.gatech.edu /~jeanbel/Teaching/RMT/hist.html

Encyclopedia: Cumulant This is one respect in which the role of the Wigner distribution in free probability theory is analogous to that of the normal distribution in conventional probability theory. The simplest example is that the second cumulant of a probability distribution must always be nonnegative, and is zero only if all of the higher cumulants are zero. 195-208, by the great statistical geneticist Sir Ronald Fisher and the statistician John Wishart, eponym of the Wishart distribution. www.nationmaster.com /encyclopedia/Cumulant

Profile of the Faculty Thus Professor Soshnikov showed that the Tracy-Widom distribution is universal for all Wigner ensembles. , Professor Soshnikov studied random matrices in the Wigner ensemble, which means matrices whose entries are independent random variables with some given distribution. He shows that, in a suitably scaled large-martrix limit, the distribution and correlations of the largest eigenvalues do not depend on the distribution of each single matrix entry. www.math.ucdavis.edu /research/profiles/soshniko

98-650 Developed technoque allows us to show that for the typical (from a measure viewpoint) matrices in the Wigner ensemble the distance between the maximal (minimal) eigenvalue and the corresponding endpoints $(+1,-1) $ of the support of a semicircle distribution is $O(N^{-1/3})$.

Catalan number The Catalan numbers occur in a simple expression for the moments of the Wigner semicircle distribution, which is important in free probability theory and the theory of random matrices. The conjunction of these two facts may be used in a proof by mathematical induction that all of the free cumulants of degree more than 2 of the Wigner semicircle law are zero. This follows from the fact that every Dyck word w of length ≥ 2 can be written in a unique way in the form aheadofnews.com /Catalan_number

SPECTRAL STATISTICS OF LEVY MATRICES For Random matrix ensembles where all matrix elements are chosen from a Levy Distribution we studied the level density of states and find a crossover between Wigner semicircle law and a density with singularities at the center of the band typical of Sparse Random Matrices. A salient feature of the level velocity distribution found is the asymmetry between statistics along the field axis and that of the energy axis. The spectrum of the system and the \Delta_3 statistic are computed for site energy distributions of the `Levy' type, which have algebraic tails towards either large or small energy values. flux.aps.org /meetings/BAPSMAR96/abs/S3310007.html

texrep.tex Wigner (of the Wigner Semicircle Law) surmised that the local nearest neighbor distribution, on small intervals normalized to have density 1, would be $Axe^{-Bx^2}$, with constants chosen so as to set the integral and the mean to 1. Thus the moments of the semicircle $\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{4-x^2}$ and the moments of the mean eigenvalue distribution are both equal to 0 if k is odd and the Catalan numbers if k is even, so since a function is completely determined by its moments, the eigenvalue distribution must be semicircular. Note that the proof of the spacings distribution relied crucially on the normal distribution: with any other distribution it would not be possible to write $P(-\theta, \theta)$ as a determinant and integrate out the odd terms. www.math.princeton.edu /mathlab/projects/ranmatrices/rl/texrep.tex

Processing and Modeling, part 2 Although STFT-based time-frequency distribution is acceptable for an analysis of the localized behaviour of frequencies associated with reflection events, such windowed transforms are restrictive in that when the frequency-fluctuations are highly localized and varying with time, the time-frequency distributions are not reliable. Windowing or smoothing WV distribution reduces the influence of the cross-terms, although it is not an ideal answer. The distribution of energy density in the time-frequency representation is generally called time-frequency distribution. www.litho.ucalgary.ca /publications/newsletter11.1/model2.html

sdemped99 This paper presents the application of the Wigner-Ville distribution (WVD) to the spectral analysis of the voltage and current systems at the terminals of an inverter-fed induction motor. The results show that the spectral analysis, based on the WVD in conjunction with suitable windows, may be used to determine the occurrence and severity of motor faults. The spectral- leakage problem is studied and the attention is focused on the effect of windowing. www-dee.poliba.it /dee-web/Ricerca/lab-converter/papers/sdemped99.htm

Dr P.D.McFadden It has been shown previously that the Wigner-Ville distribution may be applied to the analysis in the time-frequency domain of experimentally-measured time domain averages of the vibration of gears in industrial and helicopter gearboxes, in order to detect early signs of impending mechanical failure. The effect of the weighting function on the time-frequency distribution is discussed and it is shown that the level of the interference terms, the production of aliasing errors and the repetition terms in the weighted Wigner-Ville distribution are significantly reduced. A digital computer program implementing the discrete weighted Wigner-Ville distribution is described and its performance is demonstrated by the analysis in the time-frequency domain of a series of numerically-generated test signals. www.eng.ox.ac.uk /~vibpdm/ouel1891.html

1pSP6. A method of minimizing interference in Wigner--Ville distribution and its application in acoustics and vibration signals. The ambiguity function of the Wigner--Ville distribution is examined, which can be regarded as the mirror image of the distribution. What was found is rather useful---the interferences which appear in the Wigner--Ville distribution tend to be located at the center of the ambiguity function domain. One of the major advantages of expressing signal of interest in terms of Wigner--Ville distribution is that one can see how energy of signal varies with regard to time and frequency. www.auditory.org /asamtgs/asa97pen/1pSP/1pSP6.html

The Wigner-Ville Distribution The Wigner-Ville Distribution (WVD) of a signal x(t) is given by These problems have been extensively studied; however, people are still on the lookout for better smoothing functions and alias-free distributions. The WVD is a popular tool in the electrical engineering community for time-frequency analysis because it generally has much better resolution than the short-time Fourier transform (STFT) method. reylab.bidmc.harvard.edu /DynaDx/case-study/seizure/def/WVD.html

On universality of the smoothed eigenvalue density of large random matrices The same expression is derived in [ 8 ] for a random matrix ensemble with the entries that are independent random variables, whose probability distribution is a convolution of the Gaussian distribution and the arbitrary one. Regarding the global regime, the resolvent approach developed in [ 9, 10 ] is proved to be rather effective in studies of the eigenvalue distribution of large random matrices (see, for example [ 11, 12, 13 ]). Our principal goal is to examine the presence of universality of the spectral characteristics for those ensembles of random matrices, for which the explicit form of the joint eigenvalue distribution ej.iop.org /EJ/article/0305-4470/32/38/101/ja32038l1.html

UC Berkeley Mathematics As the size of the matrix tends to infinity, the level density of a Gaussian ensemble (more generally, Wigner ensemble) tends to the semicircle distribution. For the Wishart ensembles, similar results hold, with the limiting distribution depending on a parameter gamma which is the ratio of the two dimensions of the matrix. I will show this result in a more general beta setting, for both the Hermite and the Laguerre ensembles, and generalize to slightly more complicated random matrices which can be modeled in a "fixed plus Gaussian" setting. math.berkeley.edu /calendar^calendar[view]^day^month^11^year^2004^day^2.html

Wigner quasi-probability distribution - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Wigner quasi-probability distribution was introduced by Eugene Wigner in 1932 to study quantum corrections to classical statistical mechanics. The goal was to replace the wavefunction that appears in Schrödinger's equation with a probability distribution in phase space. When one has a collection (ensemble) of particles, the probability of finding a particle at a certain position in phase space is given by a probability distribution. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Wigner_quasi-probability_distribution   (823 words)

Eugene Wigner - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Wigner's friend paradox is a thought experiment proposed by Wigner, and may be seen as an extension of the Schrödinger's cat thought experiment. Wigner was one of a group of renowned Jewish-Hungarian scientists and mathematicians from turn-of-the-century Budapest, including Paul Erdős, Edward Teller, John von Neumann, and Leó Szilárd. Eugene Paul Wigner (Hungarian Wigner Pál Jenő) (November 17, 1902 – January 1, 1995) was a Hungarian physicist and mathematician who received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1963 "for his contributions to the theory of the atomic nucleus and the elementary particles, particularly through the discovery and application of fundamental symmetry principles". en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Eugene_Wigner   (1672 words)

2 The Spectrogram as a Time-Frequency Representation The Wigner-Ville distribution is highly-concentrated in time and frequency, but it is also highly nonlinear and non-local. This smearing causes the distribution to be non-zero in regions where the true Wigner-Ville distribution shows no energy. It is a smoothed Wigner-Ville distribution with the smoothing kernel equal to the Wigner-Ville distribution of the window function moab.eecs.wsu.edu /~kfitz/reassignment/html/node2.html   (1672 words)
