Matrix Concentration for Products

Probability 2020-03-12 v1

Abstract

This paper develops nonasymptotic growth and concentration bounds for a product of independent random matrices. These results sharpen and generalize recent work of Henriksen-Ward, and they are similar in spirit to the results of Ahlswede-Winter and of Tropp for a sum of independent random matrices. The argument relies on the uniform smoothness properties of the Schatten trace classes.
