Abstract

We present our recent work on the Weyl-Heisenberg ensemble and its statistical properties [4]. The WH ensemble is a class of determinantal point processes associated with the Schrödinger representation of the Heisenberg group. As a special example, WH ensembles include a multi-layer extension of the Ginibre ensemble modeling the distribution of electrons in higher Landau levels. We describe the hyperuniformity of WH ensembles, which characterizes a state of matter for which (scaled) density fluctuations diminish towards zero at the largest length scales. Our approach is based on methods from time-frequency analysis. We introduce the main results from [4] highlighting time-frequency techniques and connections to the theory of polyanalytic functions, and also present some small extensions.
