Random matrix theory has found many applications spanning a vast number of fields in physics and mathematics in the last two decades. Most recently, the equivalence between the statistics of eigenvalues of Gaussian Hermitian matrices and the position of ground-state harmonically confined 1-D fermionic particles has been studied to obtain many interesting and universal results in cold atoms. In my talk, I explore this connection to solve the problem of determining quantum fluctuations of cold fermions using techniques from random matrix theory, expanding previous results that were restricted only to specific scaling limits of the spectrum to yield a full picture of the behavior of fluctuations of fermionic particles in one dimensional traps.

Mark Sagar is the director of the Laboratory for Animate Technologies at the Auckland Bioengineering Institute and a leading expert on creating interactive autonomously animated systems which will help defi the next generation of human-computer interaction and facial animation. He started his career building computer simulations of the human eye for virtual surgery, and later worked as the Special Projects Supervisor at Weta Digital and was involved with the creation of technology for the digital characters in blockbusters such as Avatar, King Kong, and Spiderman 2. His pioneering work in computer-generated faces was recognized with two consecutive Oscars at the 2010 and 2011 Sci-tech awards, a branch of the Academy Awards that recognizes movie science and technological achievements.
