The Hall-Ho Heat Flow Conjecture for Random Matrices

Hall and Ho conjectured how the zeros of the heat-flow-evolved characteristic polynomial of a random matrix behave in the large-$n$ limit. General cases are proved; in particular, for a complex Ginibre matrix the empirical measure of those zeros converges almost surely to the semicircle law.

Proves general cases of the conjecture rather than every case.
