The average over the distribution (38) can be done diagrammatically<br />

[41, 42]. To leading order in 1/M and for E ≫ δ only simple (planar) diagrams<br />

ne<strong>ed</strong> <strong>to</strong> be consider<strong>ed</strong>. Resummation of these diagrams leads <strong>to</strong> the<br />

selfconsistency equation [22, 37]<br />

This is a matrix-generalization of Pastur’s equation in the RMT of normal<br />

systems [43].<br />

The matrices in (40) havefourM × M blocks. By taking the trace of each<br />

block one obtains an equation for a 4 × 4 matrix,<br />

Since G22 = G11 and G21 = G12 there are two unknown functions <strong>to</strong> determine.<br />

For M ≫ N these satisfy<br />

where we have us<strong>ed</strong> the relation (31) between the parameters wn and the transmission<br />

probabilities Γn. Equation (43) has multiple solutions. The physical<br />

solution satisfies limE→∞〈ρ(E)〉 =2/δ, when substitut<strong>ed</strong> in<strong>to</strong><br />

〈ρ(E)〉 = −(2/δ)ImG11(E) . (44)<br />

In Fig. 6 we plot the density of states in the mode-independent case Γn ≡<br />

Γ , for several vaues of Γ . It vanishes as a square root near the excitation<br />

gap. The value of Egap can be determin<strong>ed</strong> directly by solving (43) jointly with<br />

dE/dG11 = 0. The result is<br />

k6 − k4 (1 − k) 6 x6 − 3k4 − 20k2 +16<br />

(1 − k) 4 x 4 + 3k2 +8<br />

(1 − k) 2 x2 =1,<br />

x = Egap/ET ,k=1− 2/Γ , ET = NΓδ/4π . (45)<br />

For later use we parametrize the square-root dependence near the gap as<br />

〈ρ(E)〉 → 1<br />
