Random Matrices

This is my favorite topic in the last ten years or so. Random matrix theory is so rich and full of deep questions. I divide it into three subfields.

(1) Classical theory (limiting distributions of eigenvalues)

(2) Combinatorial random matrix theory.

(3) Random matrices in applied sciences.
