On the distribution of the total energy of a system of non-interacting fermions: Random matrix and semiclassical estimates
We consider a single particle spectrum as given by the eigenvalues of the Wigner-Dyson ensembles of random matrices, and fill consecutive single particle levels with n fermions. Assuming that the fermions are non-interacting, we show that the distribution of the total energy is Gaussian and its vari...
