Kohei Noda: Two-dimensional Coulomb gases with multiple outposts

I study two-dimensional Coulomb gases in the presence of $m$ outposts. An outpost is a connected component of the coincidence set that lies outside the droplet. The case $m=1$ was previously investigated by Ameur, Charlier, and Cronvall. They showed that, as the total number of particles in the Coulomb gas tends to infinity, the number of particles accumulating near the outpost remains of order one and converges in distribution to the Heine distribution. In this talk, I extend this analysis to the case of an arbitrary but fixed positive number $m$ of outposts. I present that the joint distribution of the numbers of particles near the outposts converges to a multidimensional Heine distribution. Our results reveal a remarkable phenomenon: although the outposts are geometrically disconnected, the particle count near each outpost is strongly correlated with the particle counts near all other outposts, not only the nearest ones.
