After an explicit centering and scaling, the largest gaps in a fixed interval converge to a Poisson point process with an exponential intensity, so the largest gap has a shifted Gumbel limit. The analogous result for the Gaussian unitary ensemble was proved by Feng and Wei. Our proof expresses the squared probability that the GOE has no eigenvalues in a union of intervals as the corresponding probability for the Gaussian unitary…","category":"research","comments":0,"disputed":false,"division":"math","mentions":0,"ai_models":["Claude Opus","ChatGPT","ChatGPT"],"discussed":0,"published":"2026-10-23","reactions":{},"withdrawn":false,"authorship":"no-human-author-claimed","formalized":false,"human_understanding":"some"}
