Abstract
Several mean-field theories predict that the Hessian matrix of amorphous solids converges the Wishart matrix in the limit of the large spatial dimensions d→∞. Motivated by these results, we calculate here the density of states of random packing of harmonic spheres by mapping the Hessian of the original system to the Wishart matrix. We compare our result with that of previous numerical simulations of harmonic spheres in several spatial dimensions d=3, 5, and 9. For small pressure p≪1 (near jamming), we find a good agreement even in d=3, and obtain better agreements in larger d, suggesting that the approximation becomes exact in the limit d→∞.
