It is useful to note that OE is extremely robust. If we are given a real symmetric
N ×N random matrix, ¯
X N , whose matrix elements are OE, then if we integrate
over all matrix elements in the Nth column and Nth row, the resulting distribution
depends on the matrix elements of ¯
X N −1 and will again be OE.
8.6.3.1 Equivalence of COE and OE When N→∞
The procedure for obtaining n-body cluster expansions T N (x 1 , x 2 , . . . , x n ) from Nbody distribution functions P N (x 1 , . . . , x N ) was discussed in Chap. 6, and applies
to all the ensembles. The n-body cluster function for COE, T C
N (θ 1 , . . . , θ n ), can be
related to the n-body cluster function for OE, T
N (e 1 , . . . , e n ), as follows. First

We wish to find the relation between these two cluster functions in the limit N→∞.
To do this, we first need to find the density of energy levels in the OE.
