Abstract: We prove a CLT for spectra of submatrices of real symmetric and Hermitian Wigner matrices. We show that if in the standard normalization the fourth moment of the off-diagonal entries is GOE/GUE-like then the limiting Gaussian process can be viewed as a collection of simply yet nontrivially correlated two-dimensional Gaussian Free Fields.

Key words and phrases: Wigner random matrix, Gaussian fluctuations, Gaussian Free Field.
