Ji Oon Lee is a Professor in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at KAIST, specializing in Probability Theory and Mathematical Physics. His research focuses on the analysis of random matrices, including Wigner matrices, sample covariance matrices, and deformed Wigner matrices. He investigates properties such as edge universality, local laws, and Tracy–Widom limits, as well as fluctuations in free energy and eigenvalue distributions. His work also addresses nonlinear Hartree dynamics, sparse random matrices, and spiked random matrix models. Lee's contributions span both theoretical and applied aspects of random matrix theory, with implications for statistical physics and signal detection.
