A diffusion description of the random matrix hard edge

With J. Ramirez and B. Virag we recently proved that the limiting soft edge eigenvalues of the general beta ensembles have laws shared by the spectral points of a certain random Schroedinger operator. After recalling this fact I’ll prove there is a similar picture at the random matrix hard edge. That is, the small eigenvalues of sample covariance ensembles are described in terms of a (random) differential operator in the large dimensional limit. Via a Riccati transformation, there is a second description though the hitting distributions of a simple diffusion. The latter picture allows a proof of the anticipated transition between the hard and soft edge laws.
