Characteristic polynomials for random band matrices near the threshold

Understand

The paper continues previous works which study the behavior of second correlation function of characteristic polynomials of the special case of $n\times n$ one-dimensional Gaussian Hermitian random band matrices, when the covariance of the elements is determined by the matrix $J=(-W^2\triangle+1)^{-1}$.

• Applying the transfer matrix approach, we study the case when the bandwidth $W$ is proportional to the threshold $\sqrt{n}$
