We consider the empirical eigenvalue distribution of an m× m principal submatrix of an n× n random unitary matrix distributed according to Haar measure. For n and m large with (m)/(n)=α, the empirical spectral measure is well-approximated by a deterministic measure μα supported on the unit disc. In earlier work, we showed that for fixed n and m, the bounded-Lipschitz distance between the empirical spectral measure and the corresponding μα is typically of order √((log(m))/(m)) or smaller. In this paper, we consider eigenvalues on a microscopic scale, proving concentration inequalities for the eigenvalue counting function and for individual bulk eigenvalues.
