Deviation Inequalities for the Spectral Norm of Structured Random Matrices

Probability 2024-05-14 v2

Abstract

We study the deviation inequality for the spectral norm of structured random matrices with non-gaussian entries. In particular, we establish an optimal bound for the pp-th moment of the spectral norm by transfering the spectral norm into the suprema of canonical processes. A crucial ingredient of our proof is a comparison of weak and strong moments. As an application, we show a deviation inequality for the smallest singular value of a rectangular random matrix.
