Hives from deformed GUE minor processes
Abstract
We construct random hives from deformed GUE minor processes. Starting from two independent diagonally deformed GUE matrices X=√n(wG+uD), Y=√n(w'G'+u'D'), where D,D' are diagonal and have GUE spectra, we use their minor processes to form a double hive and then apply the octahedron recurrence. Under the matching condition u/w2=u'/(w')2, we prove that the resulting hive law is close, in relative entropy, to a GUE hive law. More precisely, if a2=w2+u2, b2=(w')2+(u')2, then the produced hive density qn satisfies DKL ( qn middle| Density(Hn(a√n,b√n,c**√n)) ) = O(nlog n). The third scale c** is determined by a limiting tetrahedral optimization problem; equivalently, writing δ=u+u', δ2 = ( 2c**4(c**2−a2−b2) )/( (c**2−a2+b2)(c**2+a2−b2) ). Thus the construction realizes GUE hive laws, up to subleading relative entropy, throughout the right-angled and obtuse regime. The introduction records two explicit surface-tension approximations and numerical comparisons which motivated the construction.

AB - We construct random hives from deformed GUE minor processes. Starting from two independent diagonally deformed GUE matrices X=√n(wG+uD), Y=√n(w'G'+u'D'), where D,D' are diagonal and have GUE spectra, we use their minor processes to form a double hive and then apply the octahedron recurrence. Under the matching condition u/w^2=u'/(w')^2, we prove that the resulting hive law is close, in relative entropy, to a GUE hive law. More precisely, if a^2=w^2+u^2, b^2=(w')^2+(u')^2, then the produced hive density q_n satisfies D_KL ( q_n middle| Density(H_n(a√n,b√n,c_**√n)) ) = O(nlog n). The third scale c_** is determined by a limiting tetrahedral optimization problem; equivalently, writing δ=u+u', δ^2 = ( 2c_**^4(c_**^2−a^2−b^2) )/( (c_**^2−a^2+b^2)(c_**^2+a^2−b^2) ). Thus the construction realizes GUE hive laws, up to subleading relative entropy, throughout the right-angled and obtuse regime. The introduction records two explicit surface-tension approximations and numerical comparisons which motivated the construction.
