Traces of powers of matrices over finite fields
LetM be a random matrix chosen according to Haar measure from the unitary group U(n,C). Diaconis and Shahshahani proved that the traces of M,M2, . . . ,Mk converge in distribution to independent normal variables as n→∞, and Johansson proved that the rate of convergence is superexponential in n. We p...
