Abstract

Any linear statistic defined on a random-matrix ensemble is shown to be Gaussian distributed. This supports the prediction of weak-disorder perturbation theory in the diffusive, metallic limit for the distribution of conductance, since conductance is a linear statistic on the ensemble of transfer matrices.
