Parametric spectral correlations in disordered and chaotic structures.
We explore the influence of external perturbations on the energy levels of a Hamiltonian drawn at random from the Gaussian unitary distribution of Hermitian matrices. By deriving the joint distribution function of eigenvalues, we obtain the (n,m)-point parametric correlation function of the initial and the final density of states for perturbations of arbitrary rank and strength. A further generalization of these results allows for the incorporation of short-range spatial correlations in diffusive as well as ballistic chaotic structures.
