R-transforms for non-Hermitian block random matrices: a spherical integral approach
Abstract
We extend the spherical-integral approach to ℛ-transforms of non-Hermitian random matrices to random matrices with a fixed K × K block structure. We introduce a rank-K spherical integral defining a scalar H-transform on 2K × 2K overlap matrices and an associated matrix-valued ℛ-transform encoding the joint block structure. Using the replica method, we derive a conjectural subordination relation for sums of independent block matrices. This framework provides a method for determining the spectral boundaries of large non-Hermitian random matrices with a fixed block structure.
