Abstract

We study random band matrices within the framework of traffic probability, an operadic non-commutative probability theory introduced by Male based on graph operations. As a starting point, we revisit the familiar case of the permutation invariant Wigner matrices and compare the situation to the general case in the absence of this invariance. Here, we find a departure from the usual free probabilistic universality of the joint distribution of independent Wigner matrices. We then show how the traffic space of Wigner matrices completely realizes the traffic central limit theorem. We further prove general Markov-type concentration inequalities for the joint traffic distribution of independent Wigner matrices. We then extend our analysis to random band matrices, as studied by Bogachev, Molchanov, and Pastur, and investigate the extent to which the joint traffic distribution of independent copies of these matrices deviates from the Wigner case.
