Our main result is that the existing result for a random matrix from the Gaussian Orthogonal Ensemble essentially continues to hold for a general real symmetric Wigner matrix.14 pagesProbability60B99; 15A52On the Second-Order Correlation Function of the Characteristic Polynomial of a Real Symmetric Wigner Matrixtext
