Semicircle law for multi-parameter random simplicial complexes

preprint2026arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this paper, we consider the multi-parameter random simplicial complex model, which generalizes the Linial-Meshulam model and random clique complexes by allowing simplices of different dimensions to be included with distinct probabilities. For n,d∈Nn,d \in \mathbb{N} and p=(p1,p2,…,pd)\mathbf{p}=(p_1,p_2,\ldots, p_d) such that pi∈(0,1]p_i \in (0,1] for all 1≤i≤d1 \leq i \leq d, the multi-parameter random simplicial complex Yd(n,p)Y_d(n,\mathbf{p}) is constructed inductively. Starting with nn vertices, edges (1-cells) are included independently with probability p1p_1, yielding the Erdős-Rényi graph G(n,p1)\mathcal{G}(n,p_1), which forms the 11-skeleton. Conditional on the (k−1)(k-1)-skeleton, each possible kk-cell is included independently with probability pkp_k, for 2≤k≤d2 \leq k \leq d. We study the signed and unsigned adjacency matrices of dd-dimensional multi-parameter random simplicial complexes Yd(n,p),Y_d(n,\mathbf{p}), under the assumptions min⁡i=1,…d−1lim inf⁡pi>0\min_{i=1,\ldots d-1}\liminf p_i >0 and npd→∞np_d \rightarrow \infty with pd=o(1)p_d=o(1). In general, these matrices have random dimensions and exhibit dependency among its entries. We prove that the empirical spectral distributions of both matrices converge weakly to the semicircle law in probability.
