Abstract
We study the density of states (DOS) for disordered systems whose spectral statistics can be described by a Gaussian ensemble of almost-diagonal Hermitian random matrices. The matrices have independent random entries with small off-diagonal elements: Using the recently suggested method of a virial expansion in the number of interacting energy levels [J. Phys. A 36, 8265 (2003)], we calculate the leading correction to the Poissonian DOS in the cases of the Gaussian orthogonal and unitary ensembles. We apply the general formula to the critical power-law banded random matrices and the unitary Moshe-Neuberger-Shapiro model and compare the DOS’s of these models.

- The condition α=1 is not necessary for the application of the virial expansion to DOS and it will be removed in the forthcoming paper.
- If the sum in the real space diverges the virial expansion fails and we cannot consider a finite number of interacting energy levels to derive DOS.
- This is similar to the first correction to the Poissonian level compressibility calculated in Ref. [15]. This correction is governed by behavior of the correlation function F at the large distances and, therefore, is the same in PLRBM and MNS.
