dtw(x, beta=1, log = FALSE)
ptw(q, beta=1, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)
qtw(p, beta=1, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)

the order parameter (1, 2, or 4).
logical; if TRUE, probabilities p are given as log(p).
logical; if TRUE (default), probabilities are \(P[X \le x]\), otherwise, \(P[X > x]\).
dtw
gives the density,
ptw
gives the distribution function,
qtw
gives the quantile function, and
rtw
generates random deviates.
If beta
is not specified, it assumes the default value of 1
.
The Tracy-Widom law is the edge-scaled limiting distribution of the
largest eigenvalue of a random matrix from the \(\beta\)-ensemble.
Supported values for beta
are 1
(Gaussian Orthogonal Ensemble),
2
(Gaussian Unitary Ensemble), and 4
(Gaussian Symplectic
Ensemble).
