13 Standard approaches pros and cons M. Snarska (UEK) Matrix Diffusion Grodek, February / 18

14 Standard approaches pros and cons Deterministic element-based methods such as the finite element method (FEM) and the boundary element method (BEM) in their standard form have a high computation cost even for a single deterministic model. Randomization increases computation cost even more. M. Snarska (UEK) Matrix Diffusion Grodek, February / 18

15 Standard approaches pros and cons Deterministic element-based methods such as the finite element method (FEM) and the boundary element method (BEM) in their standard form have a high computation cost even for a single deterministic model. Randomization increases computation cost even more. Statistical energy analysis- The system is decomposed into subsystems homogenous and weakly coupled.the response for a subsystem is a single random variable, its total vibrational energy, and the interaction between subsystems is described by means of a power balance. Computationally very efficient (the response of each subsystem is global and due to a nonparametric model of uncertainty, which implies that the detailed statistics of the underlying physical parameters are not needed for computing the energy statistics.

16 SEA limitations M. Snarska (UEK) Matrix Diffusion Grodek, February / 18

17 SEA limitations only the marginal probability distribution of the response can be predicted with reasonable accuracy, and only when all random subsystems have sufficiently high modal overlap and when they are loaded in a specific way. M. Snarska (UEK) Matrix Diffusion Grodek, February / 18

The probability distribution of the response is needed for computing, e.g., the probability that a certain response level is exceeded, or for computing confidence intervals on system response quantities.

34 RMT based approach Also employs a nonparametric model of uncertainty for spatial variations in geometry, material properties and boundary conditions. the response of a nonparametric random subsystem is characterized by its full displacement field and not total energy. M. Snarska (UEK) Matrix Diffusion Grodek, February / 18

35 RMT based approach Also employs a nonparametric model of uncertainty for spatial variations in geometry, material properties and boundary conditions. the response of a nonparametric random subsystem is characterized by its full displacement field and not total energy. it is possible to couple a nonparametric random subsystem to any other type of subsystem and no additional assumptions are needed for computing the probability distribution of the response.

M. Snarska (UEK) Matrix Diffusion Grodek, February / 18

38 Concept of freeness RMT can be viewed as a generalization of the classical probability calculus, where the concept of probability density distribution for a one-dimensional random variable is generalized onto an averaged spectral distribution of the ensemble of large, non-commuting random matrices. Such a structure exhibits several phenomena known in classical probability theory, including central limit theorems Actually, the celebratedwigner semicircle lawfor the eigenvalue distribution of large matrices with a finite second spectral moment is nothing but the matrix-analogue for similar limiting distribution in the classical probability theory, i.e. the Gaussian distribution.

40 Free probability theory and freeness The original idea of Free Probability Theory originated in the context of non commuting random variables ( situation, when the order of operands changes the results of calculation). M. Snarska (UEK) Matrix Diffusion Grodek, February / 18

41 Free probability theory and freeness The original idea of Free Probability Theory originated in the context of non commuting random variables ( situation, when the order of operands changes the results of calculation). In the matrix case when calculating covariance between entries of two random matrices one uses unital algebra A (complex von Neumann algebra C of continuous linear operators on also complex Hilbert space) equipped with a noncommutative expectation (linear functional): such that φ : A C φ(1) = 1. Two matrices are then freely independent if and only if the expectation of the product a 1..., a n is zero. M. Snarska (UEK) Matrix Diffusion Grodek, February / 18

Snarska (UEK) Matrix Diffusion Grodek, February / 18

44 Diffusion in the matrix case Remind the diffusion process, where stochastic variable y undergoes an evolution dy = µdt + σdx t where dx t is the Wiener process obeying dx t = 0, dx 2 t = dt and µ represents the drift. After averaging over independent identical distributions (iid) of the Gaussian variables, we recover the well-known solution for the probability density fulfilling the heat equation. We would like to parallel the above construction, in the case when the independent increments in the diffusion process are replaced by free, large and non-commuting random matrices. M. Snarska (UEK) Matrix Diffusion Grodek, February / 18

45 Construction of diffusion process M. Snarska (UEK) Matrix Diffusion Grodek, February / 18

46 Construction of diffusion process Lets start with division of time interval [0, t] into K infinitesimal steps and X i belong to independent free GOEs. Natural, finite time-interval definition of the Gaussian increment is Y i = t/kx i. Each matrix measure fulfils Y = 0, Y 2 dt where dt = t/k, behaves as an analogue of the Wiener measure. M. Snarska (UEK) Matrix Diffusion Grodek, February / 18

Natural, finite time-interval definition of the Gaussian increment is Y i = t/kx i. Each matrix measure fulfils Y = 0, Y 2 dt where dt = t/k, behaves as an analogue of the Wiener measure. We can now study the problem, how some initial spectral distribution (e.g. Wigner semicircle) behaves under a series of identical, free increments of Gaussian origin. M.

The edges of the spectrum diffuse with time, i.e. λ 2 t, represents diffusion in the space of the eigenvalues of the ensemble. Hence the complex Burgers equation is a FRV analogue of the heat equation, corresponding to the standard convolution of one-dimensional Gaussian variables. M.
