We obtain exact analytic expressions of real tensor eigenvalue/vector distributions of real symmetric order-three tensors with Gaussian distributions for N ≤ 8. This is achieved by explicitly computing the partition function of a zero-dimensional boson–fermion system with four interactions. The distributions are expressed by combinations of polynomial, exponential, and error functions as results of feasible complicated bosonic integrals that appear after fermionic integrations. By extrapolating the expressions and also using a previous result, we guess a large-N expression. The expressions are compared with Monte Carlo simulations, and precise agreement and good agreement are obtained with the exact and the large-N expressions, respectively. Understanding the feasibility of the integration is left for future study, which would provide a general-N analytic formula.
