We study random Morse functions on a Riemann manifold $(M^m,g)$ defined as a random Gaussian weighted superpositions of eigenfunctions of the Laplacian of the metric $g$. The randomness is determined by a fixed Schwartz function $w$ and a small parameter $varepsilon>0$. We first prove that as $varepsilon o 0$ the expected distribution of critical values of this random function approaches a universal measure on $mathbb{R}$, independent of $g$, that can be explicitly described in terms the expected distribution of eigenvalues of the Gaussian Wigner ensemble of random $(m+1) imes (m+1)$ symmetric matrices. In contrast, we prove that the metric $g$ and its curvature are determined by the statistics of the Hessians of the random function for small $varepsilon$.
