Abstract

In this paper, we extend results of Eigenvector Thermalization to the case of generalized Wigner matrices. Analytically, the central quantity of interest here are multiresolvent traces, such as ΛA:= (1)/(N) Tr GAGA. In the case of Wigner matrices, as in \citecipolloni-erdos-schroder-2021, one can form a self-consistent equation for a single ΛA. There are multiple difficulties extending this logic to the case of general covariances. The correlation structure prevents us from deriving a self-consistent equation for a single matrix A; this is due to the introduction of new terms that are quite distinct from the form of ΛA. We find a way around this by carefully splitting these new terms and writing them as sums of ΛB, for matrices B obtained by modifying A using the covariance matrix. The result is a system of self-consistent equations relating families of deterministic matrices. Our main effort in this work is to derive and analyze this system of self-consistent equations.
