Random matrix theory and its applications : multivariate statistics and wireless communications / editors, Zhidong Bai, Yang Chen, Ying-Chang Liang.

Random matrix theory has a long history, beginning in the first instance in multivariate statistics. It was used by Wigner to supply explanations for the important regularity features of the apparently random dispositions of the energy levels of heavy nuclei. The subject was further deeply developed...
