What can we say about a physical system when we know next to nothing about it? In classical physics, the principles of thermodynamics and a few system-specific parameters suffice to make predictions. In quantum physics, random matrices have similar predictive power. That approach-referred to as random-matrix theory-has found wide applications in recent years, in quantum physics and beyond. The use of random matrices in quantum chaos, in complex many-body systems, in disordered systems and in quantum chromodynamics will be presented. Furher applications in physics and mathematics will be briefly mentioned.
