Universality and Scaling of Correlations between Zeros on Complex Manifolds

Pavel Bleher

Abstract: We study the limit as $N\to\infty$ of the correlations between simultaneous zeros of random sections of the powers $L^N$ of a positive holomorphic line bundle $L$ over a compact complex manifold $M$, when distances are rescaled so that the average density of zeros is independent of $N$. We show that the limit correlation is independent of the line bundle and depends only on the dimension of $M$ and the codimension of the zero sets. We also provide some explicit formulas for pair correlations. In particular, we provide an alternate derivation of Hannay's limit pair correlation function for $\SU(2)$ polynomials, and we show that this correlation function holds for all compact Riemann surfaces.
